KATHMANDU: The Federal Alliance has refused to accept the Constitution amendment bill that has been registered at the Legislature-Parliament by the government. A meeting of the Alliance's central agitation main mobilisation committee held on Thursday concluded that the amendment did not address any of its demands, and thereby was not acceptable, according to the Tarai Madhes Democratic Party Chairman Mahantha Thakur. The bill does not address the existing ethnic, class, gender, linguistic, cultural, religious and regional discrimination, he said. Leaders from the 29 parties affiliated to the Alliance including the Federal Socialist Forum-Nepal Chairman Upendra Yadav and Madhesi Janaadhikar Forum-Republican Chairman Raj Kishor Yadav were present in the meeting.
