Of the 10 wards in Palungtar, JSP staked claim to the posts of seven ward chairpersons and the UML to the remaining 3 posts.

In Palungtar, the JSP had earlier agreed to coordinate with the Nepali Congress. However, the two parties withdrew from the agreement due to differences over ward distribution.
