The Janamat Party (Nepali: जनमत पार्टी ) is a Nepalese political party. Formerly known as Alliance for Independent Madhesh, it was formed by former secessionist leader C. K. Raut.[1] It was formed after signing an 11-point agreement with the government of Nepal and resulted in ending his separatist movement.[2]

Formation

The party was formed on 18 March 2019 after a two-day conclave held on 17—18 March in front of 50 AIM delegates representing 22 districts of Nepal's Terai region.[3] A three-member committee headed by Chandan Singh was formed to implement the deal signed with the government. Aimed at expanding the party's strength, a 35-member central working committee was also formed under Raut's leadership.[4]
