Author yuvamind

Bihar’s BJP MPs from different areas discussed the Centre government on Tuesday to defuse the crisis in the neighbouring nation a day after foreign minister Sushma Swaraj expressed India’s concerns on the rash of violence over a draft constitution. The lagislators have insisted the special cultural cross-border to connect between the two countries and asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to exercise his personal influence on the Nepal government. After the controversy over the last three weeks, Madhesis and Tharus have objected to the constitutional draft, demanding equal citizenship provisions, inclusion in state organs and a revised federal demarcation. The region has been paralysed by a strike. Forty people have been killed and hundreds have fled fearing police victimisation to Bihar’s Sitamarhi and Madhubani districts. Kirti Azad who is MP of Darbhanga Darbhanga MP Kirti Azad said that Nepal must do more “to take into account sentiments of people in the Mithilanchal region” in the country. He said Nepal must “ponder more and let everyone sharing in the framing of the constitution”. Azad explained that it was in 1816 after the British India-Nepal accord that many areas of the Mithila region were handed over to Nepal. "We continue to share roti-beti links. Weddings take place across the border. But they are Nepali citizens and the government must take into account their aspirations.” Birendra Kumar Chaudhary, BJP’s Lok Sabha legislator from Jhanjharpur, said he wrote to the foreign minister, requesting that India take an “initiative” on the matter. He said again that the Nepal government has not been treating them well. There has been oppression. On grounds of humanity, India must raise the issue with Nepal. Ajay Nishad, the BJP MP from Muzaffarpur, replication Chaudhary’s views. “There are many marriages between people across the border. But according to the current constitutional draft, those who have married into Nepal will have to wait for many years for citizenship, and will not be allowed to hold many political and government posts.”
