Major three political parties have decided to forge an agreement with the agitating United Democratic Madhesi Front (UDMF) within Monday. A meeting of top leaders of Nepali Congress, CPN-UML and UCPN (Maoist) held at Prime Minister’s residence in Baluwatar discussed the report of taskforce formed for holding talks with the front and decided to forge common stance within Sunday, according to UCPN (Maoist) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal’s personal secretariat.Also,Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli on Thursday said Nepal’s Constitution does not discriminate against anyone. In a meeting with South Asian Human Rights Association (SAHRA) delegation, PM Oli said some individuals and groups were defaming the constitution to create instability. He said a constitution promulgated with signatures of 86 per cent lawmakers must be recognized as a democratic constitution. “The process that was followed to promulgate the constitution is also democratic,” PM Oli insisted.
