Tarai Madhes Loktantrik Party Chairman Mahanta Thakur said the government has been playing with the Madhes-based parties in the name of talks. Speaking at a press meet in Gaur on Friday, Thakur said there’s no meaning of talks if promises made with the Madhes-based 

parties are not fulfilled.Stating that they hoped the ongoing dialogue will reach a conclusion on November 1, he said talks will be futile if the government does not bring concrete proposal on that date. 

Meanwhile, Samyukta Loktantrik Madhesi Morcha protesters torched a tractor (Ja 1 Ta 6185) at Srinagar along East-West Highway in Sarlahi. The tractor was loaded with drums filled with diesel and petrol.

Likewise, in Kakadvitta, tanker drivers refused to go Panitanki in India to bring petroleum products city insecurity, a Nepal Oil Corporation official said. Some tanker drivers were manhandled in the area two days ago.
