KATHMANDU: A meeting of the Nepali Congress Central Work Execution Committee to finalize the names of the proportional representation (PR) candidates to be sent to the House of Representatives is underway at the party central office, Sanepa.
Krishna Prasad Paudel, Chief Secretary of the party office, said that the meeting is discussing the recently-concluded general election, Proportional Representation (PR) candidates, among other issues.
Nepali Congress had fielded candidates in 91 constituencies under the first-past-the-post category.
The party has become the largest party by winning 57 seats.
Since only one female candidate has been elected under the first-past-the-post system, most of the policymakers to be sent under the proportional representation category will be female members.
