Marxism-Leninism-Maoism-Prachanda Path (Nepali: मालेमावाद र प्रचण्डपथ Mālemāvād ra Prachaṇḍapath) refers to the ideological line of the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) considered as a development of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism and named after the leader of the CPN(M), Pushpa Kamal Dahal, commonly known as 'Prachanda'. "Prachanda Path" was proclaimed in 2001. The formulation of Prachanda Path was partially inspired by the example of the Communist Party of Peru, which refers to its ideological line as 'Marxism-Leninism-Maoism-Gonzalo Thought'.[1]This thought doesn't make an ideological break with Marxism,Leninism and Maoism but it is an extension of these ideologies totally based on home-ground politics of Nepal. The doctrine came into existence after it was realized that the ideology of Marxism, Leninism and Maoism couldn't be practiced completely as it were done in the past. And a suitable ideology , based on the ground reality of Nepalese politics was adopted by the party.
[edit] Debate of removing the ideological name after the party's name
The CPN Maoist are in the verse of removing the ideological name after the party's name. Senior Maoist leader Dr. Baburam Bhattarai claimed that the party was serious about removing the 'Maoist' word after the party's name. But another senior leader Kiran completely denied the chances of removing the 'tail' name of the party. He further insisted that there are no chances of removing the 'tail' name of the party as they fought with the same ideology for ten years. Chairman Prachanda supported Dr. Bhattarai's claim of removing the party's ideological name in the near future. He even claimed that he was the one who insisted or a single communist party in Nepal and that the proposal of removing the 'tail' name was put forward by himelf about two years ago. The senior leaders of the party are divided against and for the idea of removing the tail name of the party. This issue came forward when the party was in the verse of unity with another communist force, the CPN Unity Centre (Mashal).
