Nepal: Rebels with a Cause?

For many, Nepal conjures up notions of Mount Everest, Buddhist monks, and hippies seeking a Himalayan high. But this next story shows another side of Nepal -- a country recovering from a decade of civil war in which Maoist rebels recently brought down the long-standing monarchy. It faces the age-old problem: how to integrate former adversaries into a single army.

My attention has been drawn towards the misleading and utterly false information this video is emitting. The Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) hasn't stated that the Maoist Army or the P.L.A to be integrated into the National Army. The interim constitution and the CPA, both, clearly states that the PLA to be DISARMED, REHABILITATED AND INTEGRATED INTO SECURITY SERVICES and NOT into Nepal Army only as otherwise instated.
