Why the RSP is struggling to fill key leadership positions
Summary
The Rastriya Swatantra Party is still struggling to fill key leadership and committee positions nearly two months after its first general convention in Chitwan. Several posts remain vacant as internal factional consultations continue, including positions linked to the Balendra Shah camp.
Key Points
- The Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) has yet to fill several key office-bearer, secretariat and central committee positions after its first general convention.
- Rabi Lamichhane remains party chair, while posts such as vice-chair, general secretary and several departmental heads are still vacant.
- The party has nominated a handful of leaders, but officials say appointments will be completed gradually through consultations.
- The delays are partly attributed to the Balendra Shah faction not yet submitting names for some key positions.
