On Wednesday evening, JSP President Upendra Yadav conveyed a message to Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal that he would leave the government after talking to his party leaders saying that there is no point in staying in the government.

Sources claim that even if the Janata Samajwadi Party withdraws its support, Prachanda will open the file on the incident in which 27 people died in Rautahat.
