RSP, Bibeksheel Sajha to merge. In talks with Ujyalo Nepal, others

Election Commission’s extended registration deadline gives room for coalition-building among new parties.

Bibeksheel Sajha, the party that laid the foundation for alternative politics in Nepal, has decided to merge with the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP). Amid growing calls for new political forces to come together following September’s Gen Z movement, the party announced that it had decided to unite with the RSP. The merger is set to be formalised on Sunday.
