To protest against the ruling parties’ decision to initiate the voting process on disputed issues of constitution writing, the 30-party alliance led by Unified Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (UCPN-M) is organising rallies across the country on February 21, reports ekantipur.com on February 20. The first phase of protest will continue until February 28 when the alliance will hold a mass meeting in Kathmandu. The second phase of the protest will conclude on March 29 before the alliance launches what they call “decisive movement” from March 30. The parties have pledged to bring in a specified number of supporters for the protest. Maoists top the list with 100,000 cadres, followed by Madheshi Janadhikar Forum Lokatantrik (MJF-L) with 15,000 and Madhesi Janadhikar Forum-Nepal (MJF-N) with 10,000. Sadbhawana Party (SP) and Terai Madhesh Lokatantrik Party (TMLP) have committed to bring 5,000 supporters each. Meanwhile, fringe parties outside the Constituent Assembly (CA) have announced the 'revival' of the 33-party alliance to struggle for a consensus-based constitution, reports ekantipur.com. The meeting of the alliance led by the Mohan Baidya-led Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist (CPN-Maoist), which unsuccessfully attempted to foil the CA election in November 2013, on February 19, decided to launch a pressure campaign, including a mass rally in Kathmandu on March 9, to ensure consensus-driven consensus. The alliance has demanded dissolution of the CA and formation of an all-party assembly to draft the national charter.

Upendra Yadav, Chairman of Sanghiya Samajwadi Forum-Nepal (SSF-N), said that the draft constitution is regressive as it has obscured the federal democratic norms, inclusion, proportional system and identity-issue, reports Ekantipur.com. Speaking at a protest assembly organised by Samyukta Loktantrik Madhesi Morcha (SLMM) in Biratnagar on July 27, Chairman Yadav said, “If the draft constitution is promulgated without amending the discriminatory provisions, its fate will be similar to that of the past constitutions.” Also speaking in the programme, Sadbhawana Party (SP) Chairman Rajendra Mahato claimed the draft constitution has been rejected by the people and the new constitution based on such draft will not be implemented in Madhes. Another senior leader of Tarai Madhes Sadbhavana Party (TMSP), Ram Naresh Raya, said their obstruction activities during the two-day public feedback collection on the preliminary draft constitution were just a trailer. Their remaining protest programme would uproot the monopoly of the four parties.

female activists lie down on the street during a mass ‘sleep protest’ demanding equal rights for women in the upcoming Constitution at New Baneshwor in Kathmandu on August 7, reports Ekantipur.com. The protesters slept on the six lane road of New Baneshwar and chanted slogans calling on the lawmakers to include provisions in the new Constitution that would ease the process of the transfer of citizenship from mother to her children. As per the draft Constitution, mother and father both have to be a Nepali citizen to be able to bequeath their child citizenship by descent. Such a provision would put a child at a disadvantage if his/her father refuses to support them or is absent for various reasons. Also, the draft Constitution has unequal provisions regarding citizenship for non-Nepali daughter-in-law and son-in-law.
