The AMOFOI and its political wing the Freethought Party of India (FPI) observed the 63rd birthday of Nepal’s Maoist Prime Minister Puspa Kamal Dahal alias Prachanda on Sunday while celebrating AMOFOI’s 37th Foundation Day.
The focus is on the problem of political injustice and unfair representation that have been going on in India since the first general elections of 1952 and the Maoist violence that has claimed more than 12,000 lives since 2006.
The Maoist violence that was there in Nepal has fully disappeared since 2008 because Nepal has chosen the mixed proportional representation (PR) system of elections to elect its representatives to their National legislature. Violent Maoists have become non-violent and their topmost leader Prachand is now the Prime Minister of Nepal. He is holding the PM’s Office for the second time. Why India cannot follow the Nepalese track to end senseless ‘bloodshed’ caused by Maoists, a Press release said.
