Four groups fighting for autonomy in the Terai region have formed a joint front and announced protest programmes, according to Kantipuronline. The groups, including a faction of the Madheshi People’s Rights Forum (MPRF) led by Bhagya Nath Gupta, announced on December 6 the formation of a front called "Broader Madheshi Rastriya Morcha". Gupta said that the front was formed as the scattered agitation was not yielding desired results in the Terai.

He, however, asserted that they will not forge an alliance with the armed outfits in the Terai, which have been demanding a separate State.

The Madheshi Janadhikar Forum (MJF-Gupta) and the National Federation of Indigenous Nationalities (NFIN), representing the Madheshi and Janajati population have criticised the 23-point accord signed by seven party alliance (SPA), reports Nepal News.

That would have created environment conducive for Constituent Assembly," he added.
