JSP not to join the govt anytime soon
Organizing a press conference in Birgunj on Saturday, CC member Yadav alleged that the party was run in an arbitrary and unilateral manner. He said that the leadership was not clear about the party's policy as the party was dominated by contractors and corrupt people.
Yadav alleged that the party’s organizational strength was weakened in Parsa Constituency No. 4 because of the activities of Chief Minister Lalbabu Raut Gaddhi and Province Assembly lawmaker Simhansa Shah Kalwar.
