"Now, each Nepal Army soldier and officer should decide whether he wants to fight for the country or against the country and its people," said Dahal, while addressing a rally in Salyan. He called on the Nepal Army and Nepal police personnel to fight for nationalism. [break]
Dahal claimed that conspiracies were being hatched against the peace process and constitution writing as "the ruling political parties and Nepal Army have knelt down before India". He argued that his party may launch another "people´s war" to defeat such conspiracies.
He also argued that the Maoists wanted a new trilateral agreement between Nepal, China and India for the development of the country.
Dahal argued that the Sugauli Treaty was signed with Britain, not with India, and the treaty has lost its significance after the British left India. He argued that Nepali people will claim the land expanding from Tista in the east to Kangada in the west if a new treaty is not signed.
