Siraha, December 12:

Deputy Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli said today the government was committed to holding the constituent assembly (CA) election within the given timeframe. Inaugurating the eastern regional activists’ meet of the ANNFSU in Lahan today, deputy PM Oli said the interim statute would also be promulgated soon.

“The interim parliament would be formed as soon as possible”, Oli said, adding, “the process to form interim government has already been initiated”. Stating that the Maoists must give up violence, he urged the Maoists not to make haste in joining the government.

Saying that a team will be deployed in the Terai soon to solve the citizenship certificate problems, Oli said the government was committed to take action against those recommended by the Rayamajhi commission.

Accusing the Janatantrik Terai Mukti Morcha (JTMM) of being involved in sectarian violence in the Terai, Oli said violence would not serve the JTMM.

Central member of ANNFSU Ashok Yadav chaired the programme. MP Ramchandra Yadav and student leader, Jeewacha Yadav addressed the programme.
