Kathmandu, November 1

The Rastriya Janata Party Nepal has decided to field the coordinator of its presidium Mahantha Thakur for the provincial assembly elections in Province 2.

The party says Thakur will be the party’s candidate for the chief minister if he wins the provincial assembly elections scheduled for December 7.

“We have agreed to put forward the coordinator’s name as our chief ministerial candidate. However, the constituency for him is yet to be fixed,” RJPN leader Laxman Lal Karna informs Onlinekhabar.

Karna says Thakur may choose a constituency from either Mahottari or Sarlahi district.

The party is yet to decide constituencies for its other top leaders including Rajendra Mahato.

The RJPN is partnering with the Federal Socialist Forum-Nepal and two powerhouses of the Madhesh region hope to win majority seats in the provincial assembly in Province 2.
