On October 20, the Industry, Supplies, and Commerce Minister Matrika Prasad Yadav has faced a protest from the cadres of his own party during the meet-up program. The ward chairperson of six of the eleven municipality, the ward members and a dozen district members and local members gathered and formed an assembly in Bastipur Bazar and protested against the Minister.
They protested because the minister was acting as the leader of his faction, not that of the party, said Ram Aawatar Rai, a local leader. The minister is blindly supporting the mayor of Karjanha municipality despite the non-transparent acts of the mayor, he further added.
