By Bhola B Rana

Kathmadu, 30 Aug.: A three-member team of Maoist Chairman Prachanda, Prime Minister and Second Vicc-chairman Dr. Baburam Bhattarai and First Vice-chairman Mohan Baidya has been empowered to select a Maoist government team.
A standing committee meet took the decision Tuesday.
Intra-party dispute developed in selection of the Maoist team in the government of Jhalanath Khanal as.faction leaders pushed inclusion of their henchmen.
Deputy Prime Minister Krishna Bahadur Mahara was replaced by third Vice-chairman Narayan Kazi Shrestha to quell differences.
Some members didn’t join government charging original team wasn’t inclusive and representative to cover women, ethnic groups and regions.
Maoists are leading the government for the second time in 38 months.
The Maoist-led government of Prachanda resigned following a standoff with President Dr. Ram Baran Yadav and Nepal Army in nine months.
Maoists joined a UM-led government of Jhalanath Khanal and now is leading government again under Dr. Bhattatri.
Main opposition with NC attempted to lead government twice but didn’t have the required strength in parliament to counter communist moves to lead governments.
Communists have led all governments in the last 38 months despite NC attempts to dislodge them.
Communists
will be the main player in national politics for the foreseeable future as well with Madeshbadi parties emerging to influence national politics as they have done most recently by forming a front with 65 decisive parliamentary seats describing themselves as the fourth force.
NC, once the dominant party, has been sidelined
