The process for election of Nepal Student Union leadership has begun amid a strident protest from the Ram Chandra Poudel camp within the Nepali Congress, at the party office in Sanepa, Lalitpur.

The election committee has started registering candidacies for different leadership positions up for grabs within the NC-aligned NSU, even as those from the Poudel camp continue to shout slogans at the party office.

The camp has threatened to boycott the election process if the party decides to go it alone, and form a parallel executive committee.

Meanwhile, independent candidates have started fielding their candidatures. Those close to Sher Bahadur Deuba, NC president, are still trying to build an understanding with the Poudel camp. Deuba followers have not yet registered their candidatures.

In the recently-held NC general convention, Deuba had won over Poudel in the race for NC presidency.
