Kathmandu, 3 Nov.: Madhesi Janadhikar Forum – Nepal (MJF-N) Chairman Uprendra Yadav on Thursday said the recent seven-point agreement reached among the big four political parties was historic, RSS reports from Nepalgunj.
At a press meet organized by the Abadhi Journalists' Association here on Thursday, Chairman Yadav said, "The seven-point agreement had created further challenges to the political parties towards concluding peace process and constitution writing. So, they should take the challenges as an opportunity."
He accused the UCPN-Maoist of not implementing past agreements. So, the implementation of the seven-point deal also depends on the Maoist party, he argued.

Responding to a query, Chairman Yadav said his party had supported this government from the very beginning and the party would be flexible enough to forge national consensus government.
