Two agitating forces - the Federal Alliance (FA) and the Untied Democratic Madhesi Front (UDMF) - decided to observe a ‘black day’ on September 19 the day that the constitution was promulgated, reports The Himalayan Times. The two outfits stated this in their press releases issued on September 4. The UDMF issued a press release saying that an anti-people constitution was imposed on September 20 last year against the interests of marginalised communities including Madhesi, Tharu, indigenous nationalities, Muslims, and Dalits. The front said that it would observe ‘black day’ to protest the constitution. The FA and the UDMF said they would organise protest programmes in all Districts on September 18 and observe a blackout from 7.30 to 8:00pm on September 19. On September 20, the UDMF will observe a candle light vigil for those who lost their lives during the Madhes movement. The front also directed its District chapters to organise programmes on the days and at the sites where people were martyred during the Madhes movement. The FA decided to hoist black flags in VDCs, Municipalities and District headquarters during the day and observe blackout from 7.30 to 8:00pm on September 19. On September 20, the front will organise programmes in all the Districts in memory of those who were martyred during the Madhes movement.Meanwhile the FA has also formed an 11-member committee under Sadbhawana Party (SP) Chair Laxman Lal Karna to prepare a draft of the constitution, reports The Himalayan Times on September 5.

stakeholders in Khotang have floated three models for restructuring local bodies, reports The Himalayan Timeson September 14. Despite the proposal of the Restructuring Commission to form up to nine bodies, two of the proposals submitted have proposed 13 and 10 local bodies, while the next one is in line with the commission’s proposal of nine local bodies. According to the Local Bodies Restructuring Technical Committee Coordinator and Local Development Officer Nishchalraj Pande, it was not possible to propose a single model owing to differences among the political parties. “As the political parties couldn’t concur on the nine bodies’ model unanimously, we had to send all three proposals to the commission,” said Pande. Pande added that the 13-bodies and 10-bodies models propose two municipalities and 11 village assemblies and two municipalities and eight village assemblies respectively. While, the nine-body model has also retained the number of the proposed municipalities, it has proposed seven village assemblies. “All the political parties except for UML are in favour of the 10 and 13-body models, while we have also sent another proposal following the commission’s suggestion to form only nine local bodies,” said Pande.

Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) leader Surendra Pandey on September 13, said, the Government needed to issue a white paper to the public justifying the need to amend the statute, reports The Himalaya Times. Speaking to journalists at a function organised by Press Chautari Nepal, Khotang chapter, Pandey argued that the ruling parties needed to issue white paper to the people clarifying how they were going to amend the constitution. Pandey also accused the ruling parties of not being clear about Pradesh delineation, and distribution of naturalised citizenship, among others. “It is obvious that the statute can be amended. However, the government must make public the concrete grounds,” said former finance minister Pandey. He also charged the ruling Nepali Congress (NC) and the Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist Centre (CPN-Maoist Center) of being unclear about whether to split Sunsari and Kailali Districts, among others. “We doubt that the ruling parties will come up with a common recommendation.

Madhes-based parties have expressed dissatisfaction with Prime Minister (PM) Pushpa Kamal Dahal over the delay in moving forward with the amendment of the Constitution while some of their leaders even threatened to withdraw their support from the Government, reports Republicaon September 15. During a meeting with the PM on September 14, leaders of the United Democratic Madhesi Front (UDMF) and the Federal Alliance (FA) expressed dissatisfaction over the PM not organizing even a single meeting to formally discuss the matter of constitutional amendment. "I told the PM clearly that we had voted for him in the prime ministerial election as he had agreed to address the demands of the Madhes movement and amend the Constitution. However, he is yet to hold a single meeting with the UDMF regarding this issue. Therefore, I told him that we cannot continue our support to the government if he keeps on delaying in this regard," said Anil Jha, chairman of Nepal Sadbhavana Party (NSP).Meanwhile, PM Pushpa Kamal Dahal told leaders of the UDMF and FA that if the current coalition Government failed to address the agenda of Madhesis and Janajatis, its relevance would end, reports The Himalayan Times. Tarai Madhes Democratic Party (TMDP) leader Sarvendranath Shukla, who attended the meeting, said the PM also told the leaders of agitating forces that he was aware that his Government should succeed in addressing the issues of Madhesis and Janajatis. “If this coalition government fails to address the issues of Madhesis and Janajatis that would mark the failure of 60 per cent of force of the Parliament. No other force can address the issues of Madhesis and Janajatis,” Shukla quoted the PM as saying at a UDMF meeting held ahead of PM’s India visit.

The Commission of Investigation on Enforced Disappeared Persons (CIEDP) has expressed concern about transfer of its trained human resources including some senior officers claiming that it would only impact its investigation into war-era disappearance cases, reports The Himalayan Times on September 20. CIEDP Spokesperson Bishnu Pathak said the Government had assured it would make available at least 70 staffers when the body was formed in February 2015. But CIEDP eventually got only 42 employees, most of them support-staff and drivers. “About a dozen civil servants were deputed at CIEDP. At least five of them have already left the office and shifted to other government agencies,” Pathak told.

Conflict victims have become concerned about preparations to remove ‘crime against humanity’ from the heinous crime category in the amendment draft bill of the Commission of Investigation on Enforced Disappeared Persons (CIEDP) and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) Act, which is being tabled in the Parliament soon, reports The Himalayan Timeson September 27. Attorney General Raman Kumar Shrestha accepted that homework was on to amend the exiting CIEDP and TRC Act, by removing ‘crime against humanity’ from the heinous crime category. Suman Adhikari, chairman, Conflict Victims Common Platform on Transitional Justice-Nepal, said that ‘crime against humanity’ shouldn’t be de-listed from the category of heinous crimes. Rather, it should be clarified what sort of crimes fall under ‘heinous crime’. “In the existing Act, crime against humanity is considered a heinous crime. We shouldn’t remove it from the Act, rather it should be defined clearly,” Adhikari said. He also said other crimes such as forcible use of children in the insurgency, should also be considered a serious crime that happened in the decade-long Maoist insurgency from February 1996 to November 2006. In the existing CIEDP and TRC Act, crime against humanity is termed a heinous crime, along with rape, killing, torture and enforced disappearances. The draft has classified crimes other than these four heinous crimes as ‘other crimes’, by providing space for general amnesty to the perpetrators. The proposed amendment bill is awaiting final endorsement from the Ministry of Law, Justice, and Parliamentary Affairs to be able in the House.

He said, "The main priority of the government is to implement the constitution."

The UDMF leaders questioned when the three-point agreement will be implemented, when the arrested will be released and how the government will conduct local elections without resolving the issues related to the delineation of federal states. The UDMF strongly objected to three major parties for reaching a deal on restructuring of the local bodies based on the existing area clusters. The UDMF lashed at the decision among the three major parties saying that the restructuring included only 300 local bodies from Tarai which possesses more than 51 percent of the population of the country while over 600 local bodies from the hilly region.
