Hawa nachali paat hallidaina bhanchhan, kehi pani satyata nabhayeko bhaye Kantipur jasto established publication le testo kina lechha ra jasto lagchha malai. Pheri Kantipur is always against Maoists and has been supporting to traditional forces all the time; so I don't think it's just the publicity stunt of Kantipur.

It's true that Maoists want to influence army; they want someone who follows their order and instruction as the army chief. Current army chief does not definitely want any influences of Maoists within army. They have been defying government's orders and instructions, whether wrong or right, so far and if they plot a soft coup, it's logical. But even when army leadership wants a soft coup, i think it is not possible to convince president, other political parties, public and civil society for that.
