Lalbir Chaudhary new Chair of Nagarik Unmukti Party

Kathmandu, July 31: The Nagarik Unmukti Party has named Lalbir Chaudhary as its Chairperson.     

A national gathering of the party held in Kathmandu decided Chaudhary as the party Chairperson unopposed, said Arun Kumar Chaudhary, lawmaker of the party. Lalbir is also a member of the House of Representatives.     

The two-day national gathering was organised in Kathmandu from July 30. Lawmaker Arun Kumar shared that such decision was taken after the party leader, Ranjita Shrestha, fueled indecision in the party and failed to hold central committee meeting for the past one-and-half-years.     

Meanwhile, Ranjita Shrestha, who was relieved from the post of Chairperson of the party, said the decision taken against the party statute would not be acceptable to her.     

"A new chairperson has been picked by calling a national gathering without informing me. It is against the party statute. I will resort to a legal recourse to it", she opined.     

Lalbir is the father of Resham Chaudhary, patron of the party.(RSS)
