Kathmandu, Sept 18: Six office-bearers of the Janamat Party including Senior Vice-Chair Abdul Khan have resigned en masse, citing their demand for the leadership transformation remains unmet.
Party central spokesperson Dr Sharad Singh Yadav, central coordinator Kumar Yadav, CK Singh, senior province in-charge (Sudurpaschim) Rajaram Chaudhary and central member Bikram Bahadur Bam are those who resigned collectively along with Khan.
On Wednesday, the group had issued an ultimatum demanding the voluntary resignation of party Chair Dr Chandra Kant Raut and Dr Jaya Kant Raut from the Organisational Department within 24 hours.
According to spokesperson Yadav, the resigning leaders have not only stepped down from their respective positions but have also relinquished their general membership in the party.
In their resignation letter, the leaders stated that, given the country’s worsening political situation and the public sentiments, they had urged a change in leadership. However, the party leadership allegedly ignored their demands and, instead, responded arrogantly through the party’s official social site page.
The leaders further accused the party leadership of insulting the sacrifices made by the Gen-Z groups in pursuit of political transformation in the country.
