CC meeting to address RSP’s participation in by-elections

Kathmandu, August 20 - The Rashtriya Swatantra Party (RSP) is set to deliberate on its participation in the upcoming local level by-elections scheduled for November. During a central committee meeting on Wednesday, the party's acting general secretary, Kabindra Burlakoti, confirmed that the agenda includes strategic discussions regarding these elections.

Established after the 2022 local elections, the RSP has only contested federal elections and currently lacks representation in the other two tiers of government. As such, Burlakoti indicated to Ratopati that the party is preparing for a central committee discussion on whether to participate in the forthcoming local elections.
