RSP lawmaker Sudan Gurung vows to forgo government perks, donate salary to injured Gen-Z protesters



LALITPUR: Sudan Gurung, a directly elected member of the House of Representatives from Gorkha Constituency-1 representing the Rastriya Swatantra Party, has announced that he will not use government facilities and will spend his parliamentary salary to support those injured in the Gen-Z movement.

Speaking at an orientation program for newly elected RSP lawmakers held in Lalitpur, Gurung said he had entered politics not for personal benefits or privileges but to carry the voices of the people to Parliament.
