The Maoists came to the peace process in about 07, and the state has provided for their army so that their beliefs can be changed, but they haven't. That was what I got out of reading it and also that monetary incentives not enough to control intolerance and militancy - the latter of which spread through the YCL after the Maoists observed peace. How is India funding the Maoists concluded from the permise that "In Nepal, monetary incentives have failed to bring in the Maoists and was likely to fail for similar reasons in Afghanistan."?
Rao and Sinha raised grave concerns about Taliban reintegration plans currently under discussion. Sinha argued that no amount of monetary incentives would induce the Taliban to alter its core beliefs of intolerance and militancy. He was particularly troubled by the British plan which, in his view, takes Afghanistan back to the pre-1990s. Rao expressed skepticism that such a plan would work unless Pakistan changes its policy on supporting the Quetta Shura and other Taliban elements. She observed that it had failed to bring in the Maoists in Nepal and was likely to fail for similar reasons in Afghanistan.
