Seven political parties are set to file a writ petition in the Supreme Court opposing the appointment of a Chief Minister in Madhesh Province.
A meeting of seven parties held on Monday morning decided to file a writ petition in the Supreme Court with the signatures of the majority of the provincial assembly members in protest against the appointment of the Chief Minister, ignoring the majority of the provincial assembly, informed Congress Madhesh President and parliamentary party leader Krishna Prasad Yadav.
According to him, preparations are underway to go to court with the signatures of the majority of the seven parties, along with the signatures of 74 lawmakers. After the then Chief Minister Jitendra Sonal resigned without seeking a vote of confidence, on Sunday, the Congress, Maoists, CPN-UML, LSP, Janmat, JSP and Nagarik Unmukti Party demanded to move forward with the process of government formation as per Article 168 (2) of the constitution. However, after Province Chief Sumitra Devi Bhandari appointed UML parliamentary party leader Saroj Kumar Yadav as the Chief Minister as per Article 168 (3) of the constitution on Monday morning, the parties protested. After the sudden appointment of the Chief Minister on Monday morning, representatives and MPs of seven parties demonstrated in front of the gate to prevent him from entering the Madhesh Bhavan. In the meantime, the office of the provincial chief was also vandalized.
