Kathmandu, December 14

Hridayesh Tripathi, an old face in Nepal’s parliamentary politics, has announced a new party and named it Janata Pragatishil Party (People’s Progressive Party), on Tuesday.

Tripathi had left his old Rastriya Janata Party Nepal just before the 2017 parliamentary elections and had contested and won the elections as a CPN-UML candidate. Although Tripathi claimed he was a member of an independent political group during and after the election, legally, he has been a UML lawmaker.

But, Tripathi in a press meet today said he formed a new party.

He hoped his party would give momentum to national politics which he claimed has become stagnant. Likewise, he said his party would give a new thought to the country.
