Although Kathmandu is held by the Nepalese military, it is not hard to notice the significant amount of Maoist graffiti and propaganda that is on display around the city. It seems that even with the current cease-fire the Maoists aren't sitting idle, as elections approach they are hoping that their agitation in the capital will win them enough votes to take power without the use of force.



Down in the Maoist held south of Nepal, the revolutionaries were holding a rally in the town of Bharatpur. Unfortunately, my father prevented me from getting close enough to get some shots of the rally, I did manage (without turning "red" myself) to get a shots of one of the many buses on the way to the rally and some school children marching behind the Maoist flag.
