KATHMANDU, June 8: Senior leader of Madhesi People´s Rights Forum (MPRF) and Deputy Prime Minister Bijaya Gachchhadar on Monday informed Speaker Subas Nembang that the party had not withdrawn its support for the current government.



Gachchhadar´s move comes a day after party´s establishment faction led by party chairman Upendra Yadav informed teh speaker about withdrawal of party´s support for the UML-led government.



Gachchhadar claimed that there was no point in arguing over ´withdrawal´ of the party´s support as the chairman himself had signed the common minimum program of the new government after the parliamentary party meeting of MPRF´s decision to support the government. "Therefore, I request you to make seat arrangement in the parliament accordingly," Gachchhadar said in a letter submitted to Nembang.



Chairman Yadav on Sunday had requested Speaker to give opposition bench to the party in the parliament.
