The health of Nepali Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba, who is abroad for treatment due to significant blood pressure fluctuations, was discussed in a committee meeting. Members urged leaders, including Deuba, to return to Nepal, with Deuba reportedly sending a message that he will return once his health improves.

• MP Mahanta Thakur urged leaders, specifically naming Sher Bahadur Deuba, Arzu Rana, and Binod Chaudhary, to return to the country, stating there is no longer a reason to stay abroad.
• Committee Chairman Krishna Prasad Paudel clarified that Deuba's overseas treatment was due to a serious health issue, not political reasons, noting his blood pressure had dropped to 51 and was fluctuating.
• Deuba conveyed a message that he is an 'open book' and will contribute to strengthening the democratic movement upon his return, with his delay solely due to illness.
• Mahendra Yadav of the Nepali Congress urged leaders who did not participate in the special general convention to unite behind President Gagan Thapa and focus on updating active membership.
