On 28 Falgun 2076, at the unity announcement program of the RPP and RPP United, Kamal Thapa, who was seen on the podium holding the Hindu religious text Gita in his hand, said, ”I swear by holding this Gita in my hand that I will not let the RPP break up.”

Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) Central Vice President Bikram Pandey has urged leaders not to swear, targeting leaders who divided the party in the past.
Addressing the party unity meeting between the National Democratic Party (NDP) and the National Democratic Party Nepal (NDP Nepal), Pandey urged the leaders not to swear, saying, “Leaders, please do not swear. Remember where and what you swore. Make a speech so that our party does not feel guilty.”
Pandey, who was also the Urban Development Minister in the past, questioned whether the vows made in the party earlier and the oaths made to the ancestral deity had not been fulfilled. He said, “I had fulfilled that vow. After completing that today, remember God and the pilgrimage in your heart.'
He said that the party, which was two branches of a river in the past, has now merged into one root. He said that all nationalist groups, organizations and activists should be brought into the party and the victory of the nationalist party should be ensured in the upcoming elections. Pandey mentioned that the fight of the nationalists has begun and said that the party should be made so that the cadres can rise with high spirit. He admitted that it was difficult to run the party in each district and commented that they could not do the expected work.
Kamal Thapa, who appeared on the podium at the unity announcement program of the RPP and the RPP United on 28 Falgun 2076, had held the Hindu religious book Gita in his hand and said, 'I swear with this Gita in my hand that I will not let the RPP break.'
But Thapa's Gita oath was broken in about two years. After being defeated by Rajendra Lingden for the party chairmanship in the unity general convention held in 2078, Thapa announced that he was leaving the RPP. In the general convention, Lingden had secured 1,844 votes while Thapa had secured 1,617 votes. He revived RPP Nepal by reaching Hetauda on 25 Mangsir 2078.
