Communist Party of Nepal (Mashal), an underground communist party in Nepal. CPN (Mashal) was formed in 1985, following a split in the Communist Party of Nepal (Masal). It was difficult to identify any major ideological difference between the two factions, and probably the split was caused by dissatisfaction with Singh's authoritarian leadership methods. Mohan Vaidya (alias 'Kiran') became general secretary of the new party.

In 1986 CPN(Mashal) reformulated its ideology from 'Marxism-Leninism-Mao Tse-Tung Thought' to 'Marxism-Leninism-Maoism'. The same year the party initiated a failed armed insurrection, which became known as The Sector Incident. A few police posts were attacked in the capital and a statue of King Tribhuvan was painted black. Later this incident was criticized within the party ranks on the grounds that the identity of the party had been revealed, eventually leading to the resignation of Mohan Vaidya and others in the party leadership.

In 1990 Pushpa Kamal Dahal was named general secretary of the party. During the popular uprising against the royal regime, CPN(Mashal) and CPN(Masal) united around the United National People's Movement.

In 1991 CPN (Mashal) merged with Communist Party of Nepal (Fourth Convention), and formed Communist Party of Nepal (Unity Centre).
