After the Third round meeting between government and Maoist rebellion on 13th November 2001 at Godavari Village Resort in
Kathmandu both parties issued a press statement saying that the rebellion has omitted their demand of peoples republic state,
government did not accept the requisition of Assembly for Constitution and another meeting tentatively fixed for the last week of
November 2001. Who knows these were just futile. Suddenly without any previous sign, president of rebellion Mr. Prachanda (Puspa
Kamal Dahal) issued another statement declaring the significance of ceasefire, dialoguing and meeting with government has been
finished. Just after that on 23rd November 2001 the rebellion declared out the Central Peoples' Council on the presidency of Dr.
Baburam Bhattarai. Mr. Bhattari is one of the topmost leaders of the Maoist rebellions. In the same evening the rebellions attacked
more than 25 district head quarters on which including Army Camp in Dang district and killed dozens of policemen and Armies.
This
incident reinforced the killings and thirst of blood and after just three days of this terrifying attacked, on the 26th November government
force to impose the emergency in the country and mobilize the military through out country for combating with rebels. Later it is
strengthening and Police, Armed Police and Army forces are jointly mobilized against the rebels.
State of emergency itself is not
good and its outcome would not be better than ordinary situation. In this situation one hand the development budget has been
dramatically cut down and on the other hand the economic growth become very slow due to destroying infrastructures of the country,
which would certainly result out the scarcity of food. The economic report showed that the economic growth on the period of emergency
has become only 0.7 percent. At the same time on the name of emergency war the Maoist and government are slapping general people
on both sides. The human rights violation report has become a big volume in this period. Victimization on the name of emergency over
the common people is very high.
Before the emergency, about 2800 people have been killed last six years period of conflict but the
number is raising day by day. Killing, kidnapping, arresting and victimizing are very common practice for government as well as rebels
Thus, violence has been increased surprising ways.
Generally, women and children are more suffering in the armed conflicts. The
conflict between the government and Maoist rebellions impacts directly goes to the women and children is observed. The state of
emergency has fetched a pitiful life and violation of basic rights of women and children in Nepal. In this situation of emergency women
and children are facing more victims of violence many time and tortured mentally and physically.
In the emergency, ordinary rural
people have been used by rebels for their interest to carry on explosive devices, to shout over the police camp, to demonstrate against
government and to fight with police and they also used the school children as child army & child spy. On the other hand the armed
troops of state have been torturing and killing the relatives, wife and children of rebels though they do not have any relation with peoples
war. In the conflict-affected areas the schools have become either the shelter of rebels or the camp of police army. The tiny hands are
out of books, writing pad and pen on the time of listening to the teachers with terrified hearts and eyes the children need to hear the
sound of exchange guns fire. The situation of the country is going more critical ways. The following figure of killing people after
emergency is proved the real picture of country (During 27th Nov. 2001 to 08th May 2002).
