FSFN to forge electoral alliance with RJPN and NC: Leader Yadav

KATHMANDU: The General Secretary of Federal Socialist Forum Nepal Ram Sahaya Yadav said the party would forge electoral alliance with the Rastriya Janta Party Nepal and Nepali Congress for upcoming polls to address the feelings of Madhesi people.

He clarifed this alliance for the upcoming polls only not for the party merger with other like-minded parties at an interaction programme in Kathmandu on Monday.

“We are in alliance with NC for the elections only not for merger with NC. UML and Maoist Centre have also forged electoral alliance for the polls, party unification is not possible with a surface homework,” Yadav Shared.

He said the party would take the leadership role for the rights of Indigenous, Muslim, Tharu, suppressed community and marginalised community in the nation.

Similarly, CPN-Maoist Centre central leader Chakrapandi Khanal Baldev speaking at the same programme clarified the party had held discussion regarding unification with the UML rather then electoral alliance despite being in the coalition government.

He accused PM Sher Bahadur Deuba and Nepali Congress of deliberately questioning the CPN-Maoist Centre’s political morality in public.

Khanal said the earlier alliance with NC was for local levels.

He said the CPN-Maoist Centre would remain and support the government and clarified that the broader alliance with the UML is for people and nation.

A splinter group of the Pakistani Taliban, Jamaat-ul-Ahrar has in the past also backed Middle East-based Islamic St...

India’s bullet train project re-ignites debate on land for ‘public purpose’

MUMBAI: Plans for India’s first bullet train, a $17-billion-dollar project, have sparked a debate on the definition of “public purpose” for land acquisitions which have become increasingly contentious. The 500-km- (310-mile-) long high-speed rail link promises to cut travel time between the financial hub of Mumbai and the industrial city of Ahmedabad in Gujarat state by more than half to under three hours. The project, inaugurated earlier this month, will need about 825 hectares (2,000 acres) of land. The government has said it will complete the line by 2022, even as farmers along the proposed route held protests against giving up their land. They may have little say in the matter, as the state has a legal right to take private property for public purposes. But analysts say the definition of what constitutes public purpose needs revisiting, even for infrastructure projects. “When projects – airports, private colleges, bullet trains – benefit only a small percentage of ...
