Madheshi Leaders formed a New Political Party
By KTM Metro Reporter in Kathmandu
Some Madhesi leaders quitting their parent parties formed a new party called ‘Terai Madhes Loktantrik Party’, as their parent parties had not given adequate attention and importance to the Madhes area and people as well in the past according to the party leaders.
On Friday, December 28, 2007, Mahant Thakur – one-time leader of the Nepali Congress announcing the formation of the new party in Kathmandu termed the rule in the Madhes as an internal colonial rule; so, the new party is to liberate the Madhes area and the people from such a rule. He also counter charged the leaders and people who have labeled his party as a secessionist and do not want to provide the Madhes people with their legitimate rights to self-determination.
