Nepal Workers Peasants Party (Nepali: नेपाल मजदुर किसान पार्टी, abbreviated नेमकिपा) is a communist party in Nepal. The party president is Narayan Man Bijukchhe alias 'Comrade Rohit'. NWPP has a strong base in the Bhaktapur area, and limited presence otherwise. Rohit is a member of Parliament from the party.
Nepal Workers and Peasants' Party (NWPP)the then Nepal Workers' and Peasants' Organisation (नेपाल मजदुर किसान संगठन) was founded on the firm base peasants' movement in Nepal on January 23, 1975. The then Nepal Communist Party was not ready to accept the downfall of Russian revisionism into social imperialism. It was hesitating to launch peasant movements in Nepal. So, NWPP was founded in order to fight for the working-class people in Nepal as well as the whole world.
NPWO united Rohit's group (Rohit had broken away from the Communist Party of Nepal (Pushpa Lal) in protest over Pushpa Lal Shrestha's support for Indian intervention in East Pakistan), the Proletarian Revolutionary Organisation, Nepal and the Kisan Samiti. The organ of NWPO was Majdur-Kisan. In 1976 the Western Regional Committee published Rato Jhanda.
For the sake of social change and national development, NWPP has been struggling since its establishment, to raise working class up to ruling class. The cadres of this party struggle even in inconveniences and crisis and serve the people and the country with sincerity. They never bow down and surrender in front to injustice and exploitation, rather sow the seeds of socialism among the people. NWPP takes Marxism as its guiding principle and follows Leninism. NWPP has never faced self-criticism regarding its political thought and policy since it has gained maturity in this regard.
In 1981 NWPO suffered a severe split, and two separate NWPOs came into existence. One NWPO led by Rohit (which later took the name NWPP) and one NWPO led by Hareram Sharma. The current party is a continuation of Rohit's NWPO.
