If it were possible, India would just want to finish Maoist. But India cannot ignore the fact that Maoist are the largest elected party in Nepal which has won more seats in the consitutional assembly than 2nd and 3rd largest parties combined.

It is an ignorant analysis that India perfers Baburam over Prachanda. The truth is Baburam is the most popular politician at the moment in Nepal although Hisila's credentials are not helping him much.
