However, the outfit said it was opposed to "interference" by India and the US in the internal affairs of the Himalayan kingdom.

"While we have hailed the victory of the democracy-loving people of Nepal against the monarchy, at the same time we strongly oppose US and Indian interference in Nepal which should be immediately stopped," a spokesman said.

"Let the people in Nepal decide their own fate," he said as about 250 Naxalites, carrying banners and posters, marched in a procession to the kingdom's consulate here to observe Nepal Solidarity Day.

CPI(ML) had earlier called for observing May Day as Solidarity Day.

It also sent a congratulatory message to Nepal's CPN-UML leader Madhav Kumar Nepal, the spokesman added.
