Prachandas’ Hong Kong visit controversy further deepen
India has suspected that Maoist chief Prachanda’s recent visit to Hong Kong was intended to meet with Chinese high ranking officials. However, neither the Maoist nor the Indian authorities have conformed the content of discussion during the meeting independently.
“India and China have been growing their influence in Nepal on different pretext. Both the Neighboring nation has been competing to bent the Nepali political parties on their fold” a diplomat argued that “Maoist, being a largest and immature in terms of diplomacy is now in verge to taste from the foreign powers.
India and China have not only been growing their concern but also competing with intent to make dependent Nepal on them said an official of foreign ministry preferring anonymity. According to him India has further suspected that Nepali Maoist would be used to fulfill the Chinese vested interest in Nepal and India as well.
The bitterness between the India and Maoist had begun following the allegation of Maoist of India’s hand on toppling the Maoist led coalition government. However, Maoist does not agree the India’s suspicion. It claimed that Prachanda’s Hong Kong visit was merely for addressing his supporters. Responding the controversy, Maoist party spokesman Dinanath Sharma had said that his visit was entirely personal and he had met his party’s supporters rather than others there.
According to an official of foreign ministry’s Chinese desk, India had raised its concern during the meeting of Maoist chairman Prachanda in Hong Kong. However, Prachanda had also dismissed the India’s suspicion just after completing his Hong Kong visit. Responding to the queries asked by media persons at Tribhuwan International Airport Prachanda had dismissed the India’s suspicion and reports that he met high-level officials from China in Hong Kong.
