Saroj Lama, the ward president of Chumanuvri rural municipality-6 Chumchet, has left. Writing a long status on social media, he went to Germany on Tuesday for foreign employment.
He has written on the social network Facebook, "I honestly performed the role and work to the best of my ability to satisfy everyone as much as possible, but no matter how much I did, I was never satisfied with the work I did." "This young man also went abroad to start his life once again from zero," he wrote on Facebook. He also mentioned that service delivery will not be affected if the Ward President leaves the post and continuous services will be provided through the Acting Ward President. Lama gave ward member Thile Gamjo the responsibility of caretaker.
Ward president Lama was elected from the CPN Maoist center in the local elections of 2079. Ward president Lama has also informed the rural municipality that he has gone abroad. Manoj Lamichhane, the chief administrative officer of Chumanuvri, said that the information given to Gyamzo by Lama as acting ward president was conveyed to the rural municipality. "He has informed that the ward member has been given the responsibility of acting until he returns," he said. Lamichhane said that the Acting Ward President will also have the same rights as the Ward President.
This is not the first time that elected representatives of Chumanuvri rural municipality have gone abroad. Even before this, three ward members have resigned and left. Lamichhane said that Chumanuvri-4 ward member Sonam Lama, Executive member Dolma Lama and Ward No. 7 member Cheten Lama resigned from the post of ward members and moved away. "Three ward members resigned in February and April and went abroad," he said. Ward President Lama has not resigned.
Two other ward presidents elected in the 2079 election in Gorkha have gone abroad and have not returned. A year has passed since Siranchok Rural Municipality-5 Ward President Thaneshwar Pokharel and Dharche Rural Municipality-6 Ward President Dhan Bahadur Gha went abroad. Pokharel, who was elected by the Maoists, has not returned since he went to America last June. The ward chairman of Dharche-6, elected by UML, Ghale has also gone to UK and settled there.
Chairman of Dharche Rural Municipality Lakshman Gurung said that even though he asked for an explanation, he did not receive a written reply after the Ward Chairman Gha was absent from the office for a long time. "He went abroad last August, we had a conversation on messenger, we also asked him for an explanation," he said, "He informed us verbally that he would not come, but there was no written reply, we have stopped his services for 6 months." Gurung, the village chairman, said that he also informed the election office and the district coordination committee about the suspension of services.

After Pokharel, the ward president of Siranchok Rural Municipality-5, was absent from the ward office for a long time, the locals also submitted a memorandum to the village president demanding the removal of the post of ward president. Pokharel appointed Ramchandra Pokharel as his caretaker and went to America last June. "He had informed the village council last July and went abroad, but the second time he came in January and went abroad again in June, the village council was not informed," said village chairman Gyanendra Gurung. "Since he did not have his email ID, we also corresponded through WhatsApp and Messenger, he informed us through the ward office that his health condition is under the supervision of a doctor," he said. "People's representatives who are elected to be dedicated and serve the people should not deviate from their duties. Such activities disrespect the people's vote and seem irresponsible to the people," he said.
