Kathmandu, July 20

The Parliamentary Party of the Mahantha Thakur-led Tarai Madhes Democratic Party today decided to vote in favour of the no-confidence motion registered against Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli-led government.

However, it has sought a written commitment from the Nepali Congress and the CPN-MC, who have moved the no-trust motion, to meet the 11-point demands put forth by the United Democratic Madhesi Front.

The TMDP PP also demanded martyrdom status for those killed during Madhes movement, free treatment for the injured, unconditional release of cadres associated with agitating parties and withdrawal of cases against the leaders and cadres of agitating parties.

It said that the party would take other appropriate decisions after holding meetings with the Federal Alliance and the UDMF.

TMDP is a constituent of FA, which has been protesting against the provisions of the new constitution.
