The Rastriya Janamorcha (Nepali: राष्ट्रिय जनमोर्चा, lit. 'National People's Front') is a political party in Nepal. It was originally founded in 1995 as the legal front of Communist Party of Nepal (Masal). Former Deputy Prime Minister, Chitra Bahdur KC is the chairman of the party.
It was re-founded again in 2006 after breaking away from Janamorcha Nepal and still acts as the legal front for the Mohan Bikram Singh led Communist Party of Nepal (Masal). The party remains as a strong political force mainly in Baglung and Pyuthan district.
The party advocates decentralization within the former unitary system.
