Although it is certain that Sher Bahadur Deuba will take a break from the party presidency as per the binding provisions in the existing party statute of the Nepali Congress, there is widespread interest in whether he will rejoin the race for the House of Representatives election or take a break from it.
Amidst the same concerns, Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba is preparing to contest the upcoming elections from Dadeldhura again, according to Congress leaders and activists close to Deuba.
‘He has already expressed his desire to contest the elections from Dadeldhura,’ said a Dadeldhura Congress leader. ‘He has told the leaders and activists who are currently meeting at his residence that he will contest the elections from Dadeldhura for the last time.’ Deuba is a leader who has been winning consistently in seven elections to the House of Representatives.
The Congress has already started the candidate recommendation process for the elections to be held on Falgun 21. The district working committee has set a schedule for sending the candidates’ recommendations by this 25th. ‘Discussions are underway to have the President contest the elections. But let’s not say the final thing just yet. "We will know in a day or two," said Dadeldhura Congress President Bhim Bahadur Saud. "We are preparing to recommend a single name once it is decided that Deuba will contest the election."
