The Nepali Congress, Sankhuwasabha, has expelled the party’s rebel candidates.
The NC Sankhuwasabha said today that the rebel candidates who filed candidacies against the party’s official and alliance candidates, as well as their proposers and seconders, have been expelled from the party.
Deepak Khadka, President of the NC Sankhuwasabha, said that action has been taken against 23 rebel candidates.
Those facing the action are Dambar Kumar Poudel, Raju Ghimire, Bholanath Ghimire, Nabaraj Bhandari of Dharmadevi Municipality, Yadav Chandra Khadka of Madi Municipality, Bal Kumar Rai, Min Lal Rai, Rajeev Katuwal, Dipesh Gurung, Dhan Bahadur Tamang, Dilip Tamang, Aangrinje Sherpa, Dhan Bahadur Tamang and Dilip BK of Makalu Rural Municipality.
Similarly, Santosh Basnet, Bharat Basnet, Tilak Tamang, Purna Bahadur Thapa, Pushpa Bahadur Gurung, Sagar BK, Kumar Rai, Salan Rai and Sandesj Yakkha also faced the action.
