NEPAL: Biplav decides to set up new left-wing party

From DAZIBAO ROJO:

A four-day meeting of Netra Bikram Chand Biplav and his supporters concluded in Chitwan on Saturday, November 29, 2014 has decided to form a new party other than the CPN-Maoist, to which they were previously working with.
"We are announcing a new party, which will be called the CPN Maoist, by organizing a press meet on Monday," said Sudarshan Mangol, a leader of the splinter faction. "The new party's policies and programs will also be published."
Biplav and his supporters left Kathmandu a few days ago, immediately after declaring separation from their mother party the CPN-M, which is chaired by Mohan Baidya.
According to leaders close to Biplav, he would not start armed conflict but would form a semi-underground structure of the new party.
The Baidya Maoist itself is known as the far left of Nepal and within this party's structure, Biplav represented the most extreme left of Nepal stressing on armed conflict.
"We will not talk about resorting to armed conflict right now, but we are aware about all methods of defense against our enemies," Mangol said. "We will announce programs that will create pressure against the Constituent Assembly and the government."
