Important document: New York- The present report is submitted pursuant to Security Council resolution 1879 (2009), by which the Council, following the request of the Government of Nepal and the recommendation of the Secretary-General, renewed the mandate of the United Nations Mission in Nepal (UNMIN) until 23 January 2010.
 
I. Introduction

1. The present report is submitted pursuant to Security Council resolution 1879 (2009), by which the Council, following the request of the Government of Nepal and the recommendation of the Secretary-General, renewed the mandate of the United Nations Mission in Nepal (UNMIN) until 23 January 2010. UNMIN was established as a special political mission in 2007, with a mandate which included monitoring of the management of arms and armed personnel of the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) (CPN-M) and the Nepal Army. Following its merger with the Communist Party of Nepal-Unity Centre (Masal) on 13 January 2009, CPN-M was renamed the Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M).

2. The report reviews the progress of the peace process and the implementation of the mandate of UNMIN since my report to the Council of 13 July 2009 (S/2009/351).

II. Progress of the peace process

3. The stalemate among the political parties that has held up progress in the peace process remains unresolved, although renewed efforts are being made to break the deadlock and to give a new impetus to some aspects of the peace process. The Special Committee to supervise, integrate and rehabilitate Maoist army personnel resumed its work in September and renewed the mandate of its Technical Committee. The discharge and rehabilitation of the disqualified Maoist army personnel, including those determined by the 2007 verification process to be minors,
was officially relaunched on 11 October after a further delay of three months. The Constituent Assembly has made slow progress on drafting the new constitution. Deep differences and mistrust persist between the opposition UCPN-M and the two major parties in the governing coalition, the Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist-Leninist (UML) and the Nepali Congress (NC) over the circumstances that resulted in the resignation of the Maoist-led Government in May, in particular the countermanding by the President, Ram Baran Yadav, of the dismissal of the Chief of Army Staff, General Rookmangud Katawal, by the minority Maoist-led Cabinet. Two Supreme Court cases remain pending on the constitutionality of the actions.
