Lingden urges fresh national consensus post-election



KATHMANDU: Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) Chairman Rajendra Lingden has urged that the country should move forward with a new understanding after the election.

Speaking at an election rally in Rupandehi, Chairman Lingden emphasized that the nation’s problems cannot be solved by holding the 2027 election in 2026 alone. He said that after the March 5 election, all parties should unite and work toward a fresh national understanding.

A candidate from Jhapa-3, Lingden expressed his frustration that no one listened to the RPP’s call for a new agreement between the king, political parties, and the youth before the election.

He urged voters to cast their ballots in a way that would encourage the establishment of a national consensus in the country. He also advised candidates to use their votes wisely, noting that the opportunity to meet and greet voters at their doorsteps lasts only until March 5.

Chairman Lingden further stated that after the election, efforts will be made to form a strong political force and foster a renewed understanding. Prajwal Bohara, son of the late RPP leader Deepak Bohara, is contesting the election from Rupandehi-1.
