BIRATNAGAR: Deputy Prime Minister Bijay Kumar Gachchhadar today said resolution of the ongoing Tarai issues could be found from proper constitution amendment. Talking to media persons at Biratnagar Airport today, DPM Gachchhadar said that the new constitution was a historical achievement to all as it was issued after a long wait and sacrifice. He added that constitution amendment was only one alternate as issuing a new constitution and holding another constituent assembly election were impossible. DPM Gachchhadar further said that the agitating United Democratic Madhesi Front (UDMF) should come for dialogue to resolve the issues through political committee within three months. He further said that his proposed eight province modality in which three provinces would be in Tarai is the best solution for the time being.
