Abstract: Neplal's maoists initiated the process of crippling the institution of parliamentary dempcracy by giving primacy to military meanse over the political. Mainstream parties, unable to resist petty politicking, allowed themselves first to be bludgeoned into submissions by Maoist violance and then reduced to irrelevance by autocratic strategems. If civil politics has to triumph, it is upto the political parties to marshal their energies and undertake a non-violent political movements against the current and evolving tendencies in the polity.
