After the appointment of the Chief Minister at a hotel in Bardibas on Monday morning, seven other parties in Madhesh Province, apart from the UML, RPP and Federal Socialist Party, are engaged in discussions.
Province Chief Sumitra Bhandari, who was on her way to Kathmandu for treatment due to illness, reached Bardibas and appointed UML's Saroj Kumar Yadav as the Chief Minister at a hotel. After that, seven parties including Congress, Maoist, Unified Socialist, LSP, Janmat and JSP from Madhesh Province have started discussions on what to do next.
Four options are being discussed in a meeting held at the Chief Minister's residence in Madhesh Bhavan.
According to sources, discussions are being held on impeachment of the Speaker, sending back the Province Chief, going to court for legal recourse and declaring a movement.
Similarly, Chief Minister Yadav has also formed a three-member cabinet immediately after taking the oath of Chief Minister from the Province Chief. One MP each from UML, RPP and Federal Socialist Party has also been sworn in as a Minister without portfolio at the same hotel in Bardibas.
UML MP Lakhan Das Tatma, Nepal Federal Socialist Party MP Bimala Ansari and RPP MP Kanchan Bichha are among those who took oath as departmental ministers without any appointment.
Similarly, the newly appointed Chief Minister has not yet arrived at the Chief Minister's Office. Angry leaders and workers of seven parties and three have said that they will not allow the Chief Minister to enter the office. Vehicles have been parked in front of the Chief Minister's Office.
