Janamorcha Nepal in (जनमोर्चा नेपाल, Nepali for 'People's Front Nepal') was founded in 2002 as the mass organisation and electoral front of the Communist Party of Nepal (Unity Centre-Masal). It was formed following the merger between the Communist Party of Nepal (Unity Centre) and the Communist Party of Nepal (Masal) when their respective fronts Samyukta Janamorcha Nepal and the Rashtriya Jana Morcha joined together.

During the Loktantra Andolan uprising of 2006 Janamorcha Nepal joined the Seven Party Alliance. After the defeat of the regime of King Gyanendra, Janamorcha Nepal was divided. As of December 2006 there are three separate organizations calling themselves Janamorcha Nepal. One group is led by Amik Sherchan, one is led by Chitra Bahadur KC and a third is led by Pari Thapa. Each of the three factions has parliamentary representation.
