Ujyaalo Nepal Party Chairperson Kulman Ghising described the party’s short-lived unification attempt with the Rastriya Swatantra Party (Raswapa) as a “disaster” and declared that his party will move forward while preserving its independent existence. Speaking at a program in Kathmandu on Tuesday, Ghising made it clear that under no circumstances will the party’s name or election symbol be merged with another party.
Reflecting on the 12-day unity effort with Raswapa, he described that period as a time when the party was in a “coma.” He said, “It hasn’t even been three months since the party was formed, but we went into a coma in the middle. Now we have emerged strong, and we will not let our name or symbol disappear anywhere.”
Ghising emphasized that while other parties may merge into Ujyaalo Nepal, his party will not merge into any other. He also announced that 121 candidates from Ujyaalo Nepal Party will contest the upcoming House of Representatives elections and appealed to voters to support their candidates.
Expressing concern over the extravagant campaigns run by new parties, Ghising stressed the importance of contesting elections with minimal expenditure. Citing his achievement of ending load-shedding during his tenure as Executive Director of Nepal Electricity Authority, he claimed that politically, Ujyaalo Nepal remains the only viable option for the country’s overall development.
