Speaking during a media gathering organised by Society of Madhesi Journalists in Birgunj, Gachchhadar said that the parties were engaged in serious talks to resolve the remaining issues -- aimed at forming the election government within one week.

Gachchhadar, who is involved in four-party talks, said the Madhesi Front accepted the idea of the CJ-led government after the Nepali Congress and the UML also took it positively. According to him, the current government will step down as soon the understanding between the parties on new government takes concrete shape. nepalnews.com
