After the bail of Birendra Shrestha, the candidate for the House of Representatives, who is also the Taplejung District President of the National Independent Party, was forfeited, Dawa Sherpa, the coordinator of the Election Mobilization Committee and the party's District Vice President, has resigned from his post.

After the party's review meeting, he mentioned on social media that he resigned as an ordinary member of the party. 'As a result, even if the country wins, Taplejung will lose. What is even more sad is that the bail of the candidate of the National Independent Party will also be forfeited. Taking moral responsibility for not being able to make the election more organized and effective internally, I sincerely apologize to all the parents, brothers, sisters, party leaders and activists and well-wishers of Taplejung,' he said. 'From today, I am resigning from the post of District Vice President of the National Independent Party, Taplejung and the post of Coordinator of the Election Mobilization Committee, and from now on I have decided to remain only as an ordinary member of the National Independent Party.'
