Kathmandu — Senior Vice President of CPN-UML, Ishwar Pokharel, has officially announced his candidacy for party chairman. In a statement released on Tuesday, he stated that he was responding to requests and suggestions from leaders and activists across the country.
Pokharel had earlier indicated his intentions during a party secretariat meeting. He also expressed hope that the current chairman, KP Sharma Oli, would play a positive role in handing over leadership.
While Oli is reportedly preparing to retain leadership at the 11th General Convention, scheduled for the last week of Mangsir, Pokharel argues that the post-Gen Z movement political scenario necessitates a leadership transition.
