KATHMANDU: Sadbhawana Party Chairman Rajendra Mahato warned that a stern protest would be launched from mid-April if the government did not address demands of Madhes by that time. He added that the protest would be Singha Durbar-centric.

He made the statement by organising a press conference after the conclusion of three-day extended meeting of the party in Biratngar on Thursday.

"The government has time till mid-April to address the demands of the Madhes. We are not in a mood for another protest. It will be better if the government utilise the opportunity," Mahato said.

He went on to say the new protest would be aimed at pressurising the government instead of giving trouble to people.
