WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. has lifted its terror designation of the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist), several years after it abandoned armed struggle for the rough and tumble of politics.

The State Department said Thursday that the Maoist party has taken steps to dismantle its apparatus for the conduct of terrorist operations, and has committed to pursuing peace and reconciliation.

Maoist rebels began fighting Nepal’s government in 1996, and the U.S. designated the party a terrorist entity in 2003. The party, Nepal’s largest, then joined a peace process in 2006 and won elections two years later but has struggled to govern in a coalition.

The party’s Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai has been running a caretaker government since May.

In June, leftists split from the Maoist party and formed their own faction.end of story marker

I wonder what implications would it have for the asylum status that is granted to so many Nepalese these days. Sure, your government doesn't have to be a terror organization for you to get the asylum, but would the case be more difficult now?

 A high profile government source has revealed that the decision by the US Government was taken due to increasing number of Asylum applicants from Nepal. The terror designation of the Maoist party was becoming a popular channel to apply for asylum status by many Nepaliese immigrants who would have otherwise become illegal residents. Baburam Bhattarai welcomed this US Government action and is quoted to have said "न रहे बाँस न बजे बाँसुरी"
