earthsucksudown If you are here for relaying maoist agenda, then there is no point to argue and counter-argue. Independent analysis does never buy your opinion regarding the flow of huge mass during Janaandolan 2. The population coming down on the street are neither maoist cadres nor maoist supporters. If maoist are honest on themselve and truly believe they do have that a large public support, they would never be so afraid of forthcoming election. Just see, what prachanda said recently. Without having his goons to secure, he does not believe his party will get votes. Don't just try to put hollow arguement. All independent analysts agree on the fact that the large public mass landed on the street were just because of Gynanendra, who promised a lot, but did nothing. People were fade up so quickly with him and his defunct government. Independent public were betrayed with him badly when he imposed strict curfews, communication blockade, tedious and unfruitful roadside monitorings backed up by his uncivilized cops and unacceptable cruelty against political leaders. Girija, Madhav and many other political leaders, though they were not popular faces among ordinary people, were earning respect and faith when their bones fractured, when their heads punctured, when they were barred for long period of times, when they were badly ill due to contaminated foods provided, when they were locked up in sheep and food storage rooms and so on. You can not just underestimate their activities as the trails in ratnapark. Those activities were fueling to bring pivotal and cruicial moment to uncover the bad face of Gyanendra and company. Yes, maoist joined with political parties lately after getting huge pressure from india just before the Andolan was heating enough high. One may argue that maoist were key for the success of the andolan, but other may counter argue that if maoist had refuged to join parties at that time, they would perhaps be finished by now due to indian suppression. It is now crystal clear that how the maoist and political parties were brought together by Indian efforts. Read history, what happened to BP when he refused to accept Indian plan, he was almost forced to deport far south corner of India. And later he had to go back Nepal with his Melmilaap Niti. So, if you just want to argue, there are tonnes of counterarguement that negate your ones, but these exchange of arguments may still not help you to explain what actually had happened. The truth is that after maoist and parties came together, mass of people were large on streets. This is called 1+1=3 principle in politics, where unity brings a sense of security and high morale. On the other hand, government was failed to do anything effective despite having 18 days of continuous strike. People were running out of food, job, money, health, medicine and what not. They had nothing to do except watching street activities and witnessing or joining them. I myself saw people coming out of room at 5 am, gathering at street corner, bringing tires, burning them, and singing and dancing. No police, nobody there to oppose it. None of them were maoist supporters who gathered around my local areas. That is all the fact I have seen. Now, when someone die hard to argue that those people were brought by maoist or they were maoist or when someone die hard to credit maoist only for the success of aandolan, then I must say : those arguments are all craps, all shi*s, NONE is true. I don't agree at all. One more proof is there. Maoist did not agree with the agreement political parities did, and they announced continuation of the strike. They failed badly. So, that showed who was the real faith owner of the public. Maoist definitely has some support, but they won't get bigger by exaggeration with false claims. धेरै पेट फुलाउँदा भ्यागुताको पेट नै फुटेको बालकथाबाट माओबादि समर्थकहरुले सिक्न बाँकि नै छ ।
