It’s
no secret that Chairman Prachanda has publicly exposed India’s
preference for Baburam to take the premiership. There may be many good reasons
why the Indians have promoted Baburam right from his student days. But why should
Chairman Parchanda accept such naked interference in the internal affairs of
the party even if his comrade is far more qualified and recognized as the real
brains behind the mainstreaming of the Maoist party? Equally, why should the
rest of Nepal
accept the leadership of an India-man like Baburam Bhattarai?
