Local election buzz stirs party activity; two leaders in Parsa join RSP

As discussion on the upcoming local-level elections has begun, two leaders from different parties in Parsa have left their parties to join the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP). With talk continuing about holding the elections in the last week of Falgun or the first week of Chaitra, electoral activity among the parties has increased.

Nejamuddin Shamani, joint general secretary of the National Liberation Party Nepal, took general membership of RSP through its official online system. He is reported to have joined RSP with the aim of contesting for mayor of Pokhariya Municipality.

Similarly, Prabhakar Gupta, a Madhesh Province committee member of the Nepal Communist Party (NCP), has also left his party to choose RSP. Both entries are being viewed in connection with preparations for the upcoming local election.
