Kathmandu, July 22: Rastriya Janata Party leaders have expressed concern over
what they said the Madhes movement was pushed into crisis.
They have
admitted that mutual rivalry among the Madhesi parties and leaders, narrow
mindedness, selfishness, the culture of legs pulling; egoism and inconsistency
had weakened the Madhes movement.
They said the
agenda of Madhes could fall on the verge of disappearance if there was no unity
and cooperation among the Madhes-centric parties.
RJP presidency member Mahendra Ray said the
Madhes movement had got entangled amidst the crisis and difficulty.
Stating that the
party was ready to participate in the local-level if provided that its demands
that also include the constitution amendment were addressed, he accused the
Madhesi leaders of following the agenda of other political parties.
Party leader
Hridyesh Tripathi said the Madhes movement has showcased the strength of Madhes
as a political power. But, in the present situation, the party would not take
part in the election.
Leader Brijesh
Chandra Lal stressed that the State should realise the equity and rights were
the agenda of Madhes.
CPN (Maoist
Centre) leader Matrika Yadav, accusing the Madhesi leaders of not becoming
honest to the Madhes agenda and sentiments and preferring to stay in the
Capital, said only the constitution amendment was not enough to address the
Madhes issues.
Nepal Federal
Socialist Party Chair Mohammed Rijwan Ansari said equity and unity was the main
demand of the Madhes and Madhesi people were irate at their leaders and the
government due to their selfishness
nature.
Political analysts CK Lal and Bijay Kant Karna
underlined the need of reviewing the performance of Madhes leaders.
