Voters in Jhapa cast ballots hoping for change and prime minister from the district

Jhapa: Voters returning from polling in Jhapa Constituency No. 5 were heard saying, “Whoever wins, the prime minister will come from Jhapa anyway.”

In Jhapa-5 , this remark specifically referred to CPN-UML chairman and former Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli and senior leader of the Rastriya Swatantra Party, Balendra Sah. Both of them are viewed as potential prime ministerial contenders if their parties secure enough seats in Parliament.
