By KTM Metro Reporter
January 1, 2011: speaking at the Reporters’ Club in Kathmandu on December 31, 2010, one of the Vice-chairmen of UCPN-Maoist Narayan Kaji Shrestha has said that his party is not taking actions on anybody based on expressing different ideas.
"The Central Committee (CC) meeting is not called for taking actions against Bhattarai as reported in media. No action is taken in our party against any leader simply because she or he presents a different view on ideological issues. Communist parties acquire ideological clarity from ideological struggle within the party," the state-run newspaper ‘The Rising Nepal’ quotes Narayan Kaji Shrestha.
Dr. Baburam Bhattarai is taking part in a conference to be held in New Delhi, India. Chairman Prachanda has visited China several times but Vice-chairman Dr. Bhattarai has not much enthusiasm for visiting China.
