He also expressed the belief that Rastriya Janata Party(RJP) will also take part in the second-phase local level election.
“I am hundred percent confident that RJP will partake in the second phase-local elections slated for June 28. I am reaching out to RJP leaders frequently. The election date rescheduled second time has been rescheduled again at their behest”, said Dev.
Stating that Madhes-centric parties including RJP have given up their certain previous stances with a view to ending the current political impasse, he emphasized that the three major parties and the government should also demonstrate a certain degree of flexibility for addressing certain demands of Madhes-based parties.
