Press Statement
Against “the strategy of the old state” which is, on the language of our Supreme Commander of the People's Liberation Army, Nepal comrade Prachanda, “enhancing the killing and violence in the countryside by making hullabaloo of peace negotiation, not accepting international mediation for peace negotiation, continuing its own military preparation on the conglomeration with Indian expansionism”, the People’s Liberation Army western Division Command has been enhancing its activities under the unified forward-going transformation plan.
On 15 November 2004, the PLA has, on the process of searching at Masuria market of Kailali district, finished a spy of the enemy army advanced to attack with pistol, and other seven suspects are arrested and investigation is underway. Similarly, on the same day a personnel of the Royal army has been finished in Dhangarhi (a district headquarter of Kailali-western Nepal).
Similarly, a contingent of the western division of the PLA, on 16 November of 2004, took position at Pahalmanpur bazaar, nearby the so-called camp of the security forces of the Royal Army in Kailali for 4 hours and attacked over the Royal Army advanced from both sides of Dhangarhi and Sukhad barrack and finished 10 Royal Army personnel. The PLA has been successful in paralyzing the aerial attacks of the enemy and dismissed the Royal army advanced with military vehicles. In this action PLA has been successful in seizing many war materials including M-16 1 piece, SLR 4 pieces and 1250 bullets of it, 2inch mortar cell 2 pieces, magazine 16 pieces, MINIMI – bullet sets 1 piece.
In this process, platoon commander comrade Adarsha has got martyrdom and other 4 comrades have received minor injury.

We would like to appreciate and thank to Comrade Bibidh the vice commander of Western division of the PLA who took a successful leadership of the action with heroic, courageous and sacrifice in fulfilling the party’s plan from the higher level of understanding.
