The Mithila-Bhojpura-Koch- Madhesh province represents 11 districts: Bara, Parsa, Sarlahi, Jhapa, Rautahat, Sunsari, Mahottari, Saptari, Morang, Dhanusa, Siraha and part of Udaypur as well. It contains a total of 948 VDCs (Village Development Committees), including 14 municipalities. The province will cover about 14,058.7 sq km. of Nepal’s total area of 1, 47,181 sq. km. With an estimated 6.65 million inhabitants, it is by far the most populous of the new proposed provinces. The objective of the workshop was to sensitize the participants to the concept
of federalism and federal structure, its advantages as well as challenges in relation to the general context of Nepal and to explore the existing facts on opportunities and challenges for the implementation of a federal structure. The program aimed to provide social and political activists with general insights into various dimensions of federalism from the experts, and to promote discussion on the local context, enabling people to make recommendations to the Constituent Assembly to address their needs. The program was designed to take forward the momentum of dialogues on federalism in relation to the general context of Nepal as well as particular local contexts.
