The Nepali Congress has fielded new candidates in all 10 constituencies in Kathmandu, except for Pradeep Poudel.

Along with this, Congress leader Prakash Man Singh has also taken a break in his parliamentary journey since 2048. Singh had wanted a ticket from Kathmandu-1. However, saying that his position was not strong, the Congress has fielded Prabal Thapa as its candidate. He is a new face.

Similarly, Kabir Sharma has got a ticket from Kathmandu-2. He became the regional president through Swavi U. This is his first time entering the parliamentary race.

Ramesh Aryal, who is a candidate from Kathmandu-3, has also entered the election fray for the first time. He was previously the ward president.

Sachin Timilsina, who has been contesting elections since 2070, has got a ticket from the Kathmandu-4 constituency of party president Gagan Thapa. Timilsina is a cricket commentator and the founding president of the Central Youth Congress.

Former Health Minister and Congress General Secretary Pradeep Poudel has repeated his candidacy in Kathmandu-5. He was elected from this constituency before.

Sabuj Baniya is the candidate from Kathmandu-6. He is the district president of the Nepali Congress. He is also contesting the parliamentary contest for the first time.

Pramodahari Guragain, who got a ticket from Kathmandu-7, is also a new face.

Sapana Rajbhandari Joshi, the wife of the late Nabindra Raj Joshi, has been nominated from Kathmandu-8. Earlier, she was a candidate from the proportional representation side. This is her first time entering the electoral fray.

Nanu Bastola is the candidate from Kathmandu-9 and Himal Karki is the candidate from Kathmandu-10. Bastola was defeated earlier after getting a provincial ticket. This time, she has become a candidate from the House of Representatives.

Another young Karki has been given a ticket from Kathmandu-10. Karki got the opportunity after Rajendra KC, who had been contesting the election earlier, announced that he would not contest the parliamentary elections this time. He is a member of the district working committee.
