UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli has finalized the candidates for the remaining constituencies and shifted the constituencies of some candidates.

Vice President Bishnu Poudel and Dadiram Neupane are confirmed as candidates in Rupandehi-2 and 1, respectively. Although it was decided to contest from Palpa-2 on Saturday, General Secretary Shankar Pokharel has become a candidate from Dang-2 after pressure from cadres. The secretariat meeting on Saturday had not decided on Pokharel's candidacy in Dang-2. After consulting Chairman Oli, Pokharel has come to the conclusion that he will contest from that constituency. 

'General Secretary Shankar Pokharel is confirmed to be a candidate from Dang-2,' the Oli secretariat said. 

Dang-1 will be finalized on Monday. It has been decided that Ghanshyam Pandey will contest from Dang-3.

He was defeated by Rekha Sharma of the Maoist Center in the last election. Kamala Bohara was given a ticket in Kanchanpur-1 on Saturday. Her ticket was snatched from her on Sunday and given to Tara Lama. 

Afilal Okheda's ticket was snatched from her in Bajhang and given to Ain Mahar. In Taplejung, Deputy General Secretary Yogesh Bhattarai has been denied a ticket and Youth Association President Thitij Thebe has been made a candidate.

Oli has decided to make Morang-6 Binod Dhakal, Morang-5 Manoj Agrawal, Sunsari-2 Rewatiraman Bhandari and Sunsari-1 Tikaram Limbu candidates, who were undecided on Saturday.
