Who are the leaders of the Unified Socialist Parliamentary Party in the Far- West?

Dhangadhi: Leaving the CPN-UML, 14 members of the Far-Western Provincial Assembly have elected the CPN (Unified Socialist).

They have already reached the state election office in Dhangadhi and identified themselves. Today is the last day of the deadline given by the Election Commission for choosing a party. But the number of parliamentarians who identify in favor of a unified socialist is unlikely to increase.

With 14 lawmakers choosing the Unified Socialist Party, discussions are now underway about the party leader. The most talked-about leader of the parliamentary party is Minister for Physical Infrastructure Development Dirgha Bahadur Sodari.

"After the formation of the new party led by Madhav Kumar Nepal, Sodari's activism has increased," said an MP from the Unified Socialist Party. Therefore, Sodari's chances are strong in the party leader.' Meanwhile, Minister Sodari said that there was no discussion on the issue of the selection of parliamentary party leaders. "Today is the last day for the state parliamentarians and local level people's representatives to identify us.

We are busy with that," he said. Former chief whip of the CPN-UML Tara Lama Tamang is also mentioned among the leaders of the parliamentary parties. However, Tamang said that there was no discussion on the selection of the parliamentary party leader right now. Minister for Internal Affairs and Law Purna Joshi, who is also a central member of the Unified Socialist Party, said that the leader of the parliamentary party would be selected by consensus.
