According to Nepalese official sources, Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba will seek more Indian support for the fight against Maoist insurgents during his five-day visit to India starting March 20. In his talks with Indian Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee, the Nepalese Prime Minister is expected to exchange views on the red corridor running from Nepal into India through Bihar and Andhra Pradesh. Nepal in the past expressed its concerns over Maoist training camps in India from where rebels find easy access to Nepal across a porous border. India recently provided two helicopters to help Nepal fight the insurgents after they stepped up their violent campaign to oust the constitutional monarchy and install a one-party communist republic. Deputy Foreign Minister Arjun Jung Bahadur Singh, while speaking to the media in Kathmandu on March 18, said, “We will thank them for their support and seek Indian help in fighting the Maoists”. He said Nepal faced a shortage of ‘means and resources’ in battling the guerrillas and needed international support.

He is also likely to propose sharing of intelligence. The West Bengal government is reportedly preparing a report on left-wing extremism, Naxalism, in the State and is raising a special police force to tackle their growing influence in Midnapore and Bankura districts.

Reiterating its support for Nepal’s fight against insurgency, India on March 21 offered ‘ equipment and training’ to Nepal for combating Maoist insurgents. This assurance came during the ongoing visit of Nepalese Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba. While the details of the offer have not been disclosed, official sources indicated that both the countries have agreed for co-operation in intelligence sharing and border surveillance. Both the countries have also agreed to conclude their ongoing negotiations on a revised extradition treaty as also a treaty on mutual legal assistance. The treaties are expected to help India take action against Maoist leaders and sympathisers based in India. India has also reportedly conveyed its concern to Nepal on the activities of Pakistan’s Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) directed against India on Nepalese soil and ISI infiltration into India through Nepal. These concerns were conveyed to Deuba when Union Home Minister L K Advani called on him on March 21. Deuba also met the President, Vice President, Prime Minister, External Affairs Minister, the Commerce Minister and the Defence Minister. Talking to the media, after the ceremonial reception was accorded to Deuba, Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee said, "I am confident that with each other’s cooperation, we will be successful in combating terrorism".
