The competition between Bogati and Shah in Achham-2 has been repeated continuously in recent elections. Bogati had started his journey to parliament by defeating Shah in the 2074 BS House of Representatives election. Then in the 2079 BS election, Shah defeated Bogati.
This time, there was a tough competition between these two leaders again. Although the margin of victory was not very wide until the last round of counting, Bogati finally defeated Shah by maintaining his lead.
With this, Bogati has returned to the House of Representatives for the second time by winning in Achham-2.
