Some central leaders of the Nepal Sadbhavana Party (NSP-Anandidevi) have urged their top party leadership to walk out of the ruling coalition government and engage in the ongoing agitation in Terai.

Five central members of the party issued a joint statement appealing to the party leadership to engage in the peaceful street agitation by forming Democratic Madhesi Front. They have asked the leadership to call a meeting for the purpose.

The central members who signed the statement include party treasurer Dilip Singh and members Biswanath Shah, Mahesh Prasad Yadav, Manish Kumar Suman and Mahendra Ananda.

The statement has come at a time when organisations such as Madhesi Janadhikar Forum (MJF) have intensified riots and demonstrations in Terai districts demanding amendment in the interim constitution.
