After coming in 2035 BS, ML was formed as Communist Party of Nepal (Marxist-Leninist). Thus the movement moved forward. Later, the movement moved forward by correcting the extremist thinking, provocations and weaknesses that appeared in the Jhapa movement. These same friends later played a role in the 2036 movement and referendum.

Deviation from the communist leadership -Sukhani Kanda
