KATHMANDU: Senior leader of the Unified Socialist, Jhalanath Khanal, has said that the Maoist Centre and his party would be unified soon after the November 20 election.

For now, the party was for work alliance till the election and then gets unified with the CPN (Maoist Centre), he said.

He further argued that his party was close to the Maoist Centre in terms of policy, principles and thoughts, which was paving way for the unification.

He also underscored the need for unification among all communist parties for building a strong communist party in Nepal.

According to him, a task force was formed by the ruling alliance to decide on the seat sharing for the coming November 20 election, which would give a final decision within some days.

The present five-party alliance would continue till the election, he informed, reminding that the communist party was given nearly two-thirds of the total votes in the last general election, but the unification among communist parties failed due to internal strife.

It also should be noted that the two parties have agreed to carry a single manifesto in the November 20 elections.

Maoist Center Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ and Unified Socialist Chairman Madhav Kumar Nepal on Monday agreed to this effect.

The United Socialist has already formed a committee to unite with the Maoist Center.

Similarly, Prachanda is putting efforts into uniting Nepal’s Communists forces and in the process, has brought Dr Baburam Bhattarai to his side.
