The Terai Madhesh Loktantrik Party (Nepali: तराई मधेश लोकतान्त्रिक पार्टी) was a Nepalese political party founded in 29 December 2007.

The party merged with Sadbhavana Party, Nepal Sadbhwana Party, Madheshi Jana Adhikar Forum (Republican), Rastriya Madhesh Samajwadi Party and Terai Madhesh Sadbhavana Party to form the Rastriya Janata Party Nepal on 21 April 2017.

Mahantha Thakur and Hridayesh Tripathi resigned as ministers from the cabinet of Girija Prasad Koirala in support of the Madhesh movement after the Seven Party Alliance reached a 23-point agreement with the CPN (Maoist) on 27 December 2007 in order to hold the Constituent Assembly election in April 2008. Thakur had been the treasurer of Nepali Congress and Tripathi was a member of Nepal Sadbhawana Party (Anandidevi). The two along with other Madheshi leaders from the Nepali Congress and CPN (UML) formed the Terai Madhesh Loktantrik Party on 29 December 2007 with Mahantha Thakur as the founding president.^[1] Ram Chandra Yadav and Mahindra Ray Yadav who had resigned from the interim legislature were also member of the party.^[2]

The party formed the United Madheshi Democratic Front along with Madheshi Jana Adhikar Forum, Nepal and Sadbhavana Party on 9 February 2008 to stengthen the Madhesh movement called for the formation of a single autonomous Madhesh state stretching the Terai.^[3] The front signed an eight-point agreement with the government to end the indefinite strike in the Terai on 28 February 2008.^[3]

The party was created to fight for the right to self-determination of Madheshi people in the Terai region of Nepal.^[1]

The party leadership was dominated by the land-owning caste of the region and had limited appeal with the middle and lower castes.^[4] After Mahindra Raya Yadav broke away to form the Terai Madhesh Loktantrik Party Nepal most of the party's middle and lower caste members also joined Yadav.^[5]
