Dhami resigns as Chief Whip in Sudurpaschim, Khadka assigned responsibility

Dhangadhi: Bikram Singh Dhami, the Chief Whip of the Nepali Congress Sudurpaschim Provincial Parliamentary Party, has resigned. Dhami stepped down after being appointed as the Minister of Economic Affairs by Chief Minister Kamal Bahadur Shah.

Following his resignation, Chief Minister Shah, who is also the leader of the Nepali Congress Parliamentary Party, has assigned the responsibility of Chief Whip to Saraswati Khadka. Khadka currently serves as the Minister of State for Social Development.

Chief Minister Shah, who is preparing for a government reshuffle, is awaiting the names from the disgruntled faction of the Nepali Congress. The UML has already submitted the names of four new ministers to the Chief Minister, and Shah has also finalized them.

The disgruntled faction of the Nepali Congress has forwarded their recommendations to the central leadership after failing to finalize the names at the provincial level.
