Apr 8, 2017- Security officials on Friday flagged potential problems in some Tarai districts during elections if they are held without bringing the agitating Samyukta Loktantrik Madhesi Morcha (SLMM) on board.
“It will be difficult to hold elections in Siraha and Saptari districts without convincing the Morcha,” security officials said during a regional security meeting organised by the Ministry of Home Affairs in Biratnagar.
During their briefings, chief district officers of the eastern region said political parties have not been able to organise election campaigns in Siraha and Saptari districts, hinting at a lack of conducive environment for them to canvass in the region.
The agitating Morcha, which has announced protests against the government’s failure to address its concern of the constitution amendment, has warned of disrupting the local level elections slated for May 14.
