I suggest that you offer a correction. Surely your translation of the BBC Nepali Service interview with Maoist spokesman Krishna Bahadur Mahara should have appeared on your back page?

But more seriously, this was an exemplary piece of obfuscation, the skill with which Mr Mahara avoided answering any question, failed to provide any meaningful information, skirted around challenging probing questions and avoided facing up to the thrust of the argument was, quite frankly, superb. A perfect politician's performance. The BBC should now get him on Hardtalk.
