Upendra Yadav to return on Tuesday morning amidst JSP split, set to attend parliamentary party meeting



KATHMANDU: Upendra Yadav, Chairman of the Janata Samajbadi Party Nepal (JSP), is slated to return to Nepal on Tuesday morning at 1 am, amidst the party’s recent split.

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Health and Population, Upendra Yadav, had traveled to the United States of America (USA) as a government representative to participate in the fifty-seventh session of the Commission on Population and Development.

During Yadav’s absence, seven out of 12 lawmakers in the House of Representatives (HoR) opted to depart from the party and establish a new party under the leadership of Ashok Rai, a move recognized by the Election Commission.

Upon his return, Yadav is expected to promptly join the parliamentary party meeting.
