Ilam, Nepal: CPN UML senior leader Jhalanath Khanal has accused the incumbent government for causing separation between Terai and the hilly districts and dividing Terai from the mountainous regions.

Though leader Khanal had pointed fingers to the neighboring India while terming influence of foreign forces, he did not mention any name in the function. The main opposition UML has been alleging the government for bringing the constitution amendment bill under the influence of India.
In the function leader Khanal demanded the construction of a physical infrastructure in the no man's land at Pashupatinagar area in Ilam be stopped at the earliest.
