Leaders of the Nepali Congress, led by party president Gagan Thapa, have reached the Election Commission to officially update the party’s decisions made by the Special General Convention.
This comes after the first meeting of the newly elected Central Working Committee, which was held earlier on Thursday in Kupandole, Lalitpur. The meeting decided to submit all post–Special Convention decisions to the Election Commission.
Following this decision, President Gagan Thapa, Vice President Sharma, and other newly elected office bearers arrived at the Election Commission shortly afterward.
Newly appointed party spokesperson Devaraj Chalise said the team was authorized to register all decisions of the Special General Convention. These include changes to the party’s authorized signatory and updates to the proportional representation candidate list.
Chalise said the Central Committee decided to replace the signature of former party president Sher Bahadur Deuba with that of current president Gagan Thapa as the party’s official signatory.
He added that the party expects the Election Commission to quickly resolve the issue related to the Nepali Congress’ official status once the required documents are submitted.
