KATHMANDU, Nov 28: CPN-UML chairperson KP Sharma Oli has said that Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba should give clarification over the term ‘Madhesh as separate state’ used by Rastriya Janata Party Nepal (RJPN) mentioned in their election manifesto.


Without mentioning the name of RJPN, leader Oli said,” One party terms Nepal as ‘multistate’. Nepali Congress applauds the term and tries to assure voters to ensure their rights. It is misleading the people.”
