As per the order, the police termed the ‘Pratyamnaya Rajakeeya Vedika’ (Forum for Political Alternative), as a Frontal organisation of CPI (Maoist) Party. As the party and all its formations and front organisations were banned and declared as ‘Terrorist Organisations’ by Central government and banned by State Government, the permission was rejected.
Moreover, the police points out that the application has clearly mentioned that this meeting was for reviewing the progress, achievements and objectives of Ten years of United Revolutionary Movement.
