Rastriya Swatantra Party plans to hold its maiden general convention in Chitwan in May

Uncertainty surrounding RSP leader Lamichhane’s legal battles could hinder party’s ability to conduct its convention effectively.

The Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) is set to hold its first general convention from May 8 to 10, 2025, in Chitwan, the constituency of its leader, Rabi Lamichhane. However, Lamichhane's trial in police custody for cooperatives funds embezzlement has raised questions about how the convention will go and how the party's agenda will shape up.
