विराटनगर, माघ ६ - मेची राजमार्गको इलाम-फिदिम खण्ड, पुवाखोलानजिक बुधबार भिडन्त हु?दा ६ माओवादी मारिएका छन् । करिब ५० सुरक्षाकर्मी सर्म्पर्क बाहिर छन् ।
माओवादीले कम्तीमा २० सुरक्षाकर्मी मारेको दाबी गरे पनि यसको स्वतन्त्र पुष्टि भएको छैन । इलामस्थित उच्च सुरक्षास्रोतअनुसार हराइरहेका सुरक्षाकर्मी राति अबेरसम्म सर्म्पर्कमा आएका छैनन् । हराएकामा सैनिकहरू बढी छन् । ठूलै भिडन्त भएको पुष्टि गर्दै सुरक्षास्रोतले माओवादीतर्फपनि निकै क्षति भएको अनुमान गरेको छ ।

इलाम सदरमुकामबाट करिब १२ किमिउत्तर पुवाखोला पुलको मुखैमा तीन दिनदेखिको अवरोध पन्छाउन गएका सुरक्षाफौजमाथि माओवादीले आक्रमण गरेका थिए ।
स्रोतअनुसार अवरोध पन्छाउन सुरुमा ४९ सुरक्षाकर्मीको टोली त्यसतर्फगएको थियो । भिडन्तको जानकारीपछि दर्ुइ ट्रकमा थप फौज गएका थिए । उनीहरूको संख्या यकिन छैन ।
माओवादी अवरोध हटाउन सुरुमा सुरक्षाफौजको डिस्पोजल टोली अपराह्न त्यसतर्फगएको थियो । अवरोध पन्छाएर फिर्दै गर्दा सदरमुकामबाट करिब १० किलोमिटर उत्तर मेची राजमार्गको मलाते खण्डमा माओवादीले एक्कासि आक्रमण गरेका थिए । त्यसपछि सुरक्षाफौजले कारबाही गर्दा अपराह्न साढे तीन बजेदेखि भिडन्त भएको हो ।

Dear sajha readers,
I will be updating the latest important developments on Nepal politics every day on this thread.

India, Nepal sign treaty to curb Maoist rebels

India and Nepal have signed an extradition treaty to check growing links between Maoist rebels in both countries, a home ministry official said Thursday.
The agreement was signed after talks between India?s home secretary Dhirendra Singh and his Nepalese counterpart Chandi Prasad Shreshtha, the official said.
The treaty and an accord for mutual legal assistance in criminal matters would help contain ?terrorism and illegal activities including the smuggling of arms and ammunition? across the 1,800 kilometre (1,100 mile) open border between the neighbours, he said.
Earlier this week, India put its soldiers on ?full alert? along the border with Nepal after intelligence reports that Maoist guerrillas were seeking to set up bases in its revolt-hit northeast. The alert was sounded after the rebels kidnapped and later released 14 Nepalese Gurkha soldiers serving with the Indian army.
The Nepalese Maoists have been waging an increasingly deadly insurgency since 1996 to topple the monarchy. India and Nepal have been closely cooperating to contain the Maoists. New Delhi is battling its own leftist rebels in many southern and eastern states.
India, worried over the mounting instability in the Himalayan kingdom where more than 11,000 people have died in the conflict, has been training and equipping Nepal?s over-stretched army. afp

Top UN human rights official to visit Nepal

The top United Nations human rights official will visit Nepal next week for a first-hand assessment of the situation in the Himalayan kingdom, a month after a UN working group asked the government to stop "forced disappearances" of suspects in its fight against Maoist rebels.

UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Louise Arbour, will meet with senior officials of the Nepalese government, judiciary, military as well as NGOs, human rights defenders and journalists, the United Nations announced yesterday.

In December, the Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances of the UN Commission on Human Rights asked the Nepal government to institute measures including a total ban on incommunicado detention and full protection for human rights workers.

Although the group's mandate is restricted to the obligations of state authorities, it also called on the Maoists to respect human rights. The restriction in no way reduces the urgent need for the Maoists to respect international humanitarian law obligations and the physical integrity of their fellow citizens to reduce their suffering, the Group said after a nine-day visit to the country.

Nepal gay group launches journal

Nepal's only gay rights organisation has launched a weekly newspaper, the first publication here of its kind.

The Blue Diamond Society (BDS) says that it wants to give a voice to a range of oppressed communities, not just sexual minorities.

The publication is being funded by the British government.

A British diplomat told the BBC the funding of the project was part of London's campaign to reduce the impact of HIV and Aids.

Budget

The parallel English and Nepali language Blue Diamond Weekly papers are being brought out by BDS, which describes itself as an organisation for sexual minorities, including homosexual, bisexual and trans-gendered people.

BDS has already raised the profile of these communities in this conservative society and its founder, Sunil Pant, says the new paper will focus on all marginalised groups in Nepal whose voices, he says, are never heard.

It will look at the human rights of women and children, dalits - or so-called untouchables - and sex workers, as well as sexual minorities, and will focus on HIV and Aids prevention.

It is being funded by Britain's Department for International Development, which has a budget for small projects like this.

The British Embassy will administer the grant, which must be spent in line with departmental objectives.

The British diplomat said the aim was to help people living with Aids, or at risk of it, to lead fulfilled lives and have greater Aids-related risk awareness. Aids, he pointed out, contributed to poverty.
