KATHMANDU: The Janata Samajwadi Party (JSP) Nepal, led by Upendra Yadav, has officially withdrawn its support from the Lumbini Province government.

The support was initially extended to the government led by Chief Minister Chet Narayan Acharya.

JSP Nepal had earlier announced its decision to pull out support from the federal government headed by KP Sharma Oli, and the provincial move is part of the same decision.
