According to the statement released by the UCPN-Maoist, Prachanda has shown concern for Indian General Dipak Kapoor telling visiting Nepalese Chief of Army Staff Chatraman Singh Gurung not to integrate the Maoist combatants into the Nepal Army a few weeks ago; Prachanda has also made it clear to the Indian envoy that the Indian General talking about the internal matters of Nepal has violated the international norms of not interfering in the internal matters of any other country; in addition, Prachanda has shown his concern for the Indian encroachment on the Nepalese territory.
After meeting with Former Prime Minister Prachanda, Indian envoy Rakesh Sood left Kathmandu for New Delhi for a regular briefing to the Indian authorities about the political situation in Nepal.

On December 27, 2009, General Secretary of CPN-UML Iswore Pokharel has said that Indian General Dipak Kapoor telling visiting Nepalese Chief of Army Staff Chatraman Singh Gurung not to integrate the Maoist combatants into the Nepal Army is not official one so his party is not concerned with this matter; however, the integration of Maoist combatants and their subsistence will be following the Comprehensive Peace Agreement.
