Parliament had to be formed through elections. If the government can't do that, I think the parliament should be re-established," he said. "This is the current situation." "Whatever mandate the people give, whatever the will of the people is, that will is manifested in the parliament," Mahat said, "that parliament will advance the issues of necessary reforms and constitutional reforms."
According to him, ifthe elections are not held on February 21, the process of re-establishing the parliament will proceed. "If not now, the parliament will go on the path of re-establishment. "Parliament will form the government," he said, "and it will hold elections again soon." There is no need to wait until 2084, elections will be held in 2083.''
