Janamat Party’s two ministers without portfolio resigned on Monday.

A minister and another state minister of Madhes Province tendered their resignation today.

Basanta Kumar Kusawaha and state minister Sanjay Kumar Yadav, who were made ministers without portfolio by snatching the ministries, resigned at the direction of the party.

On May 23, Chief Minister Saroj Kumar Yadav replaced Kusawaha, who was taking the responsibility of the Ministry of Land Management, Agriculture and Cooperatives, by Govinda Neupane of CPN (Unified Socialist). Since then, both of them became ministers without portfolio.

The Janamat Party is preparing to send Chief Whip Chandan Singh and Manju Khang, who will represent Dalit, for the state minister in the upcoming Cabinet expansion.

Janamat Party had two ministers and one state minister in Madhes Province.

Meanwhile, preparations are underway to expand the Cabinet at 5 pm today.
