RAJBIRAJ, NOVEMBER 4

Janata Samajbadi Party-Nepal Chairman Upendra Yadav on Friday stressed the need to continue fighting to institutionalise accomplishments of the Madhes movements.

Addressing an election rally held at Rajdevi Tole of Rajbiraj Municipality, Yadav said that Madhes movement had guaranteed rights to the Madhesi people but further struggle was a must for Madhes' development and reform in the governance system.

Yadav argued that he was also working to guarantee rights to marginalized, Dalits, minority people of Hills and mountains by making Tarai base.

Yadav blamed meagre budget allocation for the non-development of the Tarai/Madhes. He pledged to make Madhes a hub for education and health. Yadav has filed his candidacy for the House of Representatives member from Saptari-2.
