According to media reports, peace talks between the Nepalese government and Maoist insurgents have failed, as both sides could not evince flexibility. At the second round of peace that ended in a deadlock on September 15, 2001, the Maoists placed their 31-point charter of demands including abrogation of monarchy and the establishment of a Republic, an interim government and setting up of a new Constituent Assembly to frame a new Constitution. However, the government representatives rejected the demands. Government chief negotiator and Cabinet Minister Chiranjibi Wagle said at a press conference in Kathmandu on September 15 that constitutional monarchy was non-negotiable. Reports quoting Wagle also added that both the parties have agreed to meet again. The dates for the next round of talks have not been decided. As the talks failed, the government intensified security in the capital Kathmandu as also in other parts of the country. Meanwhile, the government has banned rallies, mass meetings, picketing, strikes and all other forms of protest programmes in the Kathmandu Valley, effective from September 15.

The second round of peace talks between the government and the Maoist insurgents held on September 14, 2001, in Bardia, 500km southwest of Kathmandu remained inconclusive and has, thus, been extended by a day. Therefore, the two sides have agreed to meet also on September 15, today. The Maoist insurgents presented a written agenda to discuss a republic, an interim government and a constituent assembly to frame a new constitution. The government, on the other hand, asked the rebels to call off a proposed rally on September 21, which some fear might turn violent. Besides, reports said, the Royal Nepal Army commenced night patrolling in Kathmandu, the capital, reports from Nepal said.

The media in Nepal said the Maoist insurgents had laid down conditions, which if not met would delay the third round of peace talks with the government. Maoist insurgents’ chief negotiator at the peace talks Krishna Bahadur Mahara said, in a statement, on October 18, that it was the responsibility of the government to set free all the insurgents now under detention and to meet the conditions that the insurgents had set. The conditions set by the insurgents are: the release of 300 activists; making public the whereabouts of missing persons; disbanding the armed police, ordering the Army back to the barracks; and abrogating the preventive detention act.

The third round of peace talks between the Government and Maoist Insurgents ended inconclusively on November 12 night. The talks were held at Godavari Village Resort in Lalitpur district. Minister for Physical Planning Chiranjivi Wagle and Maoist Politburo member Krishna Bahadur Mahara led the government and insurgents’ negotiating teams respectively. Speaking a day later, Minister of Agriculture and a member of the government negotiating team Narahari Acharya said, "We are prepared to amend the constitution through the provisions mentioned in it... But we cannot agree with the ... demand of abolishing the constitution." He also said, "They have not yet clarified what they really mean by change in the constitution", and added that the insurgents were yet to convince the people about the necessity and relevance of a new constituent assembly. Commenting on the talks, former Deputy Prime Minister Ram Chandra Paudyal said the latest round of talks were "positive but not so encouraging". He opined, "The Maoists have not yet clarified their demand regarding the changes they have sought in the present constitution," even as he said, "We are ready to discuss matters relating to any type of amendment to the constitution if it helps to empower the people". Paudyal further stated, "Though the Maoists have abandoned their demand for a republican state, their demand for a constituent assembly is indirectly related to declaring a republican state.

The third round of talks between delegations of the Nepalese government and Maoist insurgents held at Lalitpur, concluded on November 13, without any concrete decisions but agreed to resume the next round of talks in near future. The two sides also agreed to further empower the Nepalese people through drastic changes in society. There was disagreement on the means to achieve this goal with the government side holding that these changes could be bought through the present Constitution of the Kingdom of Nepal, while the Maoists representatives stuck to the demand that a Constituent Assembly be convened to further ensure people’s rights. The government’s chief representative Chiranjibi Wagle, said that with the Maoists having dropped their demand for a republic, there was no need for a constituent assembly as the present constitution had provisions for fundamental rights, people’s sovereignty, freedom and impartial judiciary. However, the Maoist chief negotiator Krishna Bahadur Mahara said, "The Constituent Assembly is our minimum demand, and (we) will not accept anything less than this." The Maoists chief representative also alleged that that the government did not fulfil its announcement of releasing the 68 Maoists detainees who are still in the custody. He added that "We clearly demanded that the government withdraw its army and armed police force from different districts." The government side asked that Maoist leaders to circulate an effective direction to their workers for an immediate stoppage of their forceful activities, which, the government side said, have been continuing despite the Maoists’ public commitment to stop such activities.
