CPN (Mashal) has raised objection against the assurance given by Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala to Madhesi leaders that their demands would be met if they participate in the upcoming constituent assembly polls.

In a statement issued by its general secretary Mohan Biram Singh on Friday, the party said the PM’s statement raised suspicions that agreement against the interest of the country and the people would be reached with the rebellion groups in terai in close doors.

Singh also stood against the demands raised by terai groups for one Madhes saying the activities of the agitating groups are motivated by communal and separatist interests.

However, he said justifiable demands of the Madhes people have to be met.

Further, Singh condemned the Maoists’ decision to reactivate its Revolutionary People’s Council and the YCL attacks on leaders of other political party leaders. nepalnews.com ia Feb 08 08
