Ever since Nepal adopted a new Constitution, Madheshi community has been agitating, voicing their concern over discrimination. 
 
The unrest in Terai region, which has already lasted 110 days, over this issue has not only hit trade but has also put security interests in India on radar. 
 
India has suggested working out a formula to establish federal structure to meet aspirations of all sections of the Nepali society. 
 
India’s External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj told a group of visiting leaders from the Madheshi community that India was for "broadbased ownership" of the new Nepalese constitution and favoured a "speedy" political solution to the crisis. 
 
The Madheshis living in the Terai region of Nepal allege that Nepal’s new constitution discriminates against them. 
 
Demarcation of boundaries, distribution of political powers and ambiguity in grant of citizenship to Indian women marrying Nepalese men in Terai region were among major issues raised by the Madheshi community. 
 
Presently, an Indian woman marrying a Nepalese man is granted citizenship of Nepal when she starts the process of giving up Indian citizenship. 
 
But, Madheshi people say there is no clarity on the issue. 
 
The agitation by Madheshis even turned violent, which led to shortage of essential commodities including fuel and medicines. 
 
The Narendra Modi government has suggested Deputy PM Kamal Thapa and Madheshi leaders to reach a consensus on the issue.
