The chairman of CPN-Maoist, Prachanda, stated that his party had taken the decision “to cease all of its military activities” in the capital valley keeping in view the requests made by the alliance and civil society groups and also to expose claims by the royal Government that the Maoists were planning to infiltrate into the protest programmes organized by the Seven Party Alliance (SPA). He added that his party would extend its “full support” to the programmes of general strike, rallies and non-cooperation announced by the SPA this week (April 6-9) as per the spirit of the second memorandum of understanding entered between his party and the SPA. He also alleged that the Government was conspiring to what he called unleash “state terror” against the peaceful movement being launched by the opposition parties against the 14-month-old direct rule of the king.

Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) spokesperson, Krishna Bahadur Mahara, has said that the anti-government demonstrations launched by the Seven Party Alliance (SPA) since last week is in fact a joint programme between his party and the SPA. In an interview with BBC Nepali Service on April 10, Mahara said, "obviously, it is a collaboration. After the 12-point understanding (reached in November last year), we have been coordinating our programmes". Mahara added, "not only this, we want to move forward with a joint programme, joint front and joint slogan. They (the SPA) need us and we need them," he added. Mahara also claimed that the Maoists and the SPA had reached into an understanding and agreement to end the monarchy. "At present, two currents are flowing against the monarchy. The essence of the 12-point understanding is that monarchy can be ended by joining both these currents," said Mahara. "The peaceful agitation alone can’t bring about the end of monarchy," he added.

We have entered into an understanding (with the Maoists) and there hasn’t been any agreement."
