During the standoff over Nepal’s electoral system for the (now complete) constituent assembly elections, we discussed here the controversy over whether to use a mixed-member system or a pure list-PR system.
The controversy was more heated than we realized.

The protest banner says:
X – MIXED ELECTORAL SYSTEM
[check] Full Proportionate Electoral System
Madhesi Janadhikar Forum – Madhesh
Janakpur (Nepal)
