The meeting decided to extend the term of the taskforce led by Minister for Local Development Hitraj Pandey. The taskforce will study the report of the SRC and submit the final proposal to the government within a week.


On the other hand, the United Democratic Madhesi Front (UDMF) is not happy with the report.


The constitution amendment process will be taken forward in the House meeting scheduled for Tuesday, Minister for Information and Communications Surendra Karki, who is also the government spokesperson, told Republica Online.
