At a programme at party office in Bijulibazaar, Kathmandu, Thakur said Madhesi parties will take part in the election. “We will decide whom to vote only after internal talks,” said Thakur. Thakur revealed Nepali Congress President Sushil Koirala has already asked for the support of the Madhesi parties. “We will decide on him on the meeting,” he said.
Thakur blamed the recent political developments especially the formation of the new government had put the talks between the Madhesi morcha and the government on the backburner. He accused the government side of not being serious for talks. “They don’t come for talks. Everyone is busy after the new government,” said Thakur.
