Co-chair of the ruling Nepal Communist Party (NCP) Pushpa Kamal Dahal on November 5 met Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and objected to his remarks that he would not resign as Prime Minister as well as his instruction to leaders of NCP to intensify debate in favour of people’s multi-party democracy championed by the erstwhile Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist–Leninist (CPN-UML), reports The Himalayan Times. NCP leaders are divided about what should be the party’s ideology after the party’s General Convention, with the Oli camp time and again vouching for people’s multi-party democracy. Erstwhile CPN-Maoist Centre, which was led by Dahal before its merger with the CPN-UML, had championed the cause of people’s democracy of the 21st century. Some leaders of the ruling party are saying that a new ideology could be developed by synthesising people’s multi-party democracy and people’s democracy of the 21st century. Dahal also urged the Prime Minister to call a meeting of either the party Secretariat or the Standing Committee to discuss current political issues, but the Prime Minister refused to do so. The Dahal faction is also miffed at the Prime Minister for taking unilateral decisions on reshuffling the Cabinet and making appointments in the constitutional body. The Dahal faction says the Government is bound to follow the party’s decisions and policies and wants the Prime Minister to consult party leaders before taking any vital decisions related to government policies.

The US Special Inspector for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) in a report quoting the Resolute Support (RS) says 876 civilians were killed and 1,685 were wounded from July 1 to September 30, 2020, Tolo News reports on November 9. In line with the continued rise in violence, this quarter’s casualties increased by 43 per cent compared to last quarter (April 1–June 30, 2020), the report says. The report says that though casualties are typically high in the third quarter of any year, this quarter’s high figures are notable because they occurred during an ongoing peace process and despite Taliban commitments to reduce violence. According to the report, RS attributed about 83 per cent of this quarter’s civilian casualties to anti-government forces (40 per cent to unknown insurgents, 38 per cent to the Taliban, 3 per cent to Islamic State-Khorasan [Daesh], and 2 per cent to the Haqqani Network), roughly the same as last quarter’s breakdown. Another 8 per cent were attributed to pro-government forces (8 per cent to ANDSF and no incidents attributed to Coalition forces), and about 8 per cent to other or unknown forces, the report says.

The US Government on November 30, has moved a motion in a federal court in California opposing the release of Pakistani-origin Canadian businessman Tahawwur Rana, who has been declared a fugitive by India for his involvement in the 2008 (26/11) Mumbai terror attack case, describing him a flight risk, reports Daily Excelsior.Rana, 59, was re-arrested on June 10, 2020 in Los Angeles on an extradition request by India for his involvement in Mumbai terror strike.His extradition hearing is scheduled for February 12, 2021. In a motion filed before the US District Court Judge in Los Angeles Jacqueline Chelonian, US Attorney Nicola T Hanna urged the court to deny Rana’s motion for release for failure to prove that he is not a flight risk or that special circumstances exist and continue to detain him pending resolution of this extradition proceeding. Hanna’s motion comes in opposition to the latest effort of Rana to avoid detention pending extradition, by capitalising on the developments of the COVID-19 pandemic. Rana’s attorney has argued that pandemic warrants his release from custody. In denying Rana’s initial motion for release in July,2020, the court had said he constituted a flight risk given his significant foreign contacts and the possibility he could face a death sentence in India.
