Swarnim Wagle Elected Unopposed as RSP Vice-Chair

Dr. Swarnim Wagle has been elected unopposed as vice-chair of Rastriya Swatantra Party. Wagle, who is also the finance minister, became unopposed after Birajbhakta Shrestha withdrew his candidacy. RSP chair Rabi Lamichhane had already been elected unopposed earlier.

The final list of candidates for office-bearer positions has not yet been made public. Earlier, the results of the central member election were published on Thursday amid some dissatisfaction. RSP’s first general convention, which began in Chitwan on Ashar 7 with the target of concluding within three days, has extended into its sixth day.
