Leaders and cadres of the Nepali Congress (NC) stressed on federalising the country based on identity and capability and making four-six federal states including two in Madhes.

During the program, NC President Sushil Koirala said that the NC was not for making many federal states. He however clarified that the party was not against federalism.

He said it should not be forgotten that most of the countries were seceded due to ethnicity-based federalism and inapplicable form of governance.
