KATHMANDU, April 24: After failing to forge an electoral alliance among the members of the ruling alliance in Gorkha, the ruling Nepali Congress has announced that the party will contest in the upcoming local level elections without forging an alliance with any party. Organizing a press conference, Nanda Prasad Neupane, district chairperson of Gorkha, maintained that the party will contest the election solely. “Due to some personal interest of some leaders, we failed to reach an agreement.

Ruling alliance to form electoral alliance against UML in Makwanpur

KATHMANDU, April 3: The ruling alliance has agreed to form an electoral alliance against the main opposition party, CPN-UML, in Makwanpur district in the upcoming local level election. As per the local level elections, 2074 BS, the CPN-UML was the largest party in the district.
