Life and career

In the early 1970s, Bijukchhe became a

Central Committee member of Pushpa Lal Shrestha's Communist Party of Nepal. He was put in charge of the Bagmati, Narayani and Janakpur zone.[2] He went against the leadership of Pushpa Lal Shrestha. narayan man Bijukchhe criticized the decision of Pushpa Lal and the party to support the Indian intervention in East Pakistan, the policy of seeking cooperation with Nepali Congress and the failure of the party to condemn the Soviet Union as imperialist power.[1]

In 1975 he founded the Nepal Workers and Peasants Organisation (which later became the Nepal Workers and Peasants Party).[2][6] The influence of the group remained largely confined to Bhaktapur, but in that area it became successful in mobilizing tenants and gaining influence inside panchayat institutions.[7]

He was a member of the

2017 Nepalese legislative election as he wanted to give chance to the new generation of leaders.[14][15]

Visits in North Korea

Bijukche has visited North Korea four times on the invitation of the latter's government. Portraits of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il are hanged in his office alongside these of Marx, Lenin, Stalin and Mao.[16] Bhaktapur residents have questioned the relevance of North Korean ideology (Juche) imported to Nepal - Juche is part of the ideology of NWPP.[17]
