Statement by Com. Prachanda, (Chairman),

Central Committee CPN (Maoist)

 

Against the historic necessity of forwarding political solution of Nepalese society, the feudal murderers are abortively trying to rule the country through medieval jungle rule perpetuating series of cowardice killing of Nepalese great sons and daughters with the backing of foreign imperialist and expansionist forces. In the name of so-called emergency the execution of killing, terrorizing and arsoning of most devilish sadistic nature and dramatic political conspiracy played by the royal army throughout the country is going to not only make a mockery of the achievements of 1990 year’s historical people’s movement, but is also making mockery of all the values of human civilization. Today, it has become like a daily chore for the feudal palace to kill daily every Nepalese people such as political activists, writers, poets, cultural activists, journalists including those individuals who hold their conscience and independent views, all of who are committed wholeheartedly for the liberation and progress of this country and its people. The latest victim in this series of cowardice murdering has been our Party Central Committee member and a popular youth leader, Com. Rit Bahadur Khadka, who has been brutally murdered. Together with this, the fate of Com. Krishna Sen, under government custody, has now become almost clear by the dramatic and conspiratorial expressions of this government pressured on them by the Nepalese journalists, human rights activists and intellectual community in regards to revelation of the news that was leaked out that he was tortured and killed inside police custody. Com. Krishna Sen was our Party’s responsible member and was also a militant and well established poet belonging to Nepalese progressive movement and a well-known journalist as well. In this regard we give our full-fledged support and solidarity to the initiative and the movement headed by the journalists, human right activists and the intellectual community in regards to their demand to reveal the true state of Com. Krishna Sen and to punish the concerned culprit. Our Party pays homage to Com. Rit Bahadur Khadka, Krishna Sen and other immortal martyrs with high respect and we pledge to avenge their death. Today the Nepalese society is amidst the cross-juncture between progression and regression. The feudal elements are closing all the doors to peaceful political solution and are nakedly demonstrating national betrayal by surrendering before the foreigners in other to get their help in killing Nepalese people. Under such a circumstance, there is no other alternative before the Nepalese people, other than creating a wide resistant movement so as to save nation’s freedom and its sovereignty and to protect the right of livelihood of us and our daughters and sons. Before the people’s solidarity movement, these national betrayals and feudal murderers, can never be saved by any powers in this world.

Hence our Party has taken decision to make appeal to all people to observe September 16th as "Nepal Bandh" (countrywide strike) to protest against the killing of our Party’s Com. Rit Bahadur Khadka, Krishna Sen and daughters and sons of Nepalese people and to demand positive outlet to the present crises. The concrete schedule for this programme will be declared by different nationality and regional fronts headed by our Party and the central level of United Front, the United Revolutionary People’s Council. Our Party makes a humble appeal to all the progressive forces and people of the country to make Nepal Bandh programme a great success so as to raise the people’s resistance movement against feudal murderers and people’s solidarity to the higher level.
