The Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) has expelled its Bara district chairman, Chandan Swarnakar, revoking his basic membership. Swarnakar claims the expulsion was unjust and a "political murder" orchestrated by party members fearing his re-election, while RSP lawmakers state the incident at a district meeting was exaggerated and caused by Swarnakar's supporters.

  • Swarnakar was expelled based on a recommendation from the party's central disciplinary commission following a central committee meeting on Baisakh 30.
  • Official notification of Swarnakar's expulsion was sent on Jestha 6 by Shankar Shrestha, secretary of the RSP's central office organization department.
  • Swarnakar alleges a conspiracy against him before the district's extended meeting and convention, stating the center acted without impartial investigation.
  • RSP lawmakers Rahbar Ansari, Arbind Sah, Ganesh Dhimal, and Chandan Singh attended the extended meeting in Kalaiya, where disruptions occurred.
  • Disgruntled cadres protested against the elected lawmakers at the meeting, accusing them of neglecting old party members after joining from other parties.
