NEPALGUNJ, June 24: Tarai Madhes Democratic Party (TMDP) Vice Chairman Brishesh Chandra Lal said on Thursday that all Maoist leaders except Dr Baburam Bhattarai were ´disqualified´ to lead a national consensus government.



Speaking at an interaction organized by Awadhi Journalists Association, Lal said Dr Bhattarai could lead the new national consensus government should the Maoist choose to pick him as a prime ministerial candidate. [break]



"The Maoists should not delay in picking his name since there is a situation of national consensus for his name," he said. "Dr Baburam Bhattarai is the only consensus prime minister candidate in the present context."



TMDP General Secretary and State Minister for Education Gobinda Chaudhari said parties must forge consensus at the earliest since promulgation of new constitution is not possible without the formation of a national consensus government. He alleged that big three parties had ignored Madhes-based parties while making crucial decisions.
