The chairperson of JSP, Praveen Chamling, issued a statement today reminding everyone that the decision on the name of the state was made on Oct 9-10, 2020. It is stated that State 1’s naming should be based on identity.
“State 1 should be named ‘Kirat-Limbuwan-Madhesh-Shepalung State,'” the statement said, “addressing the demands of original civilization, historical political background, and identity.”
According to the press release, JSP has been under constant pressure from the streets and the parliament to build a fully federal Nepal and has even implemented it in Madhesh State, where his government is located.
