Kathmandu, October 30

Former CPN-UML lawmaker and Nepal’s billionaire businessperson Binod Chaudhary has been included in the closed list of Nepali Congress’ proportional representation candidates.

Chaudhary was elected a member of the first Constituent Assembly under the proportional representation category by CPN-UML in 2008. The party’s Nawalparasi district committee had recommended his name for the second Constituent Assembly elections in 2013 too, but the industrialist did not show interest to contest.

Nepali Congress Central Working Committee member Narayan Khadka confirmed inclusion of Chaudhary’s name in the list.

A party source says Chaudhary was listed as the party candidate after he assured to provide financial assistance to the party for the elections.
