This person belong to a naxal outfit in India which is a banned organication. The article needs to be neutralizd from the Government's/police point of view.--MohitSingh (talk) 15:44, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
CPI(ML) Liberation is not banned, but very much a legal organization registered with the Election Commission of India. Not clear what the poster considers as the POV problem. --Soman (talk) 03:57, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
If you check the website of Ministry of Home Affairs[1]you shall find that, the ministry has banned Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) -- People’s War, All its formations and front organizations. CPI(ML)L being one such formation, it is a banned organisation. Also, all the references available (other than dead links as of now) belong to CPI(ML)L which is his own party which may be biased towards.--MohitSingh (talk) 06:40, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You clearly know very little about the Naxal movement. The CPI(ML)PW and CPI(ML)L are two completely different parties, and the ban on CPI(ML)PW (nowadays merged into CPI(Maoist)) would never extend to groups for just having similar names. You may want to read http://eci.gov.in/eci_main/ElectoralLaws/OrdersNotifications/ElecSym19012013_eng.pdf page 26, entry 399. As per the POV claim, exactly what is it that you find objectionable? The text clearly indicates who states the claims that Prasad's arrest was a political ploy, as opposed to stating it as an objective truth. --Soman (talk) 08:58, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I am sorry for the confusion I had regarding the political party he belonged to and the status. I am a law student and also a close follower of Naxalism movements. Since you have relied on only the website of his party, you have a different opinion of his activities. The 2010 election data provided by you clearly provide information on why he was arrested. You had not provided any data regarding his protest movement as obviously his political party's website did not publish them. Please read the judgment of the Patna High Court which had granted him the bail. He has clearly accepted the fact that he was there in that mob.--MohitSingh (talk) 13:30, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
