KATHMANDU: The presidential election will take place on Thursday. Despite the fact that most parties are open about who they will vote for, the five parties in the Federal Parliament and the State Assembly are mostly silent.

Even if the parties favor one another, the MPs will vote in secret. Among the parties that do not open in this manner are three in the federal parliament and two in the state legislature. They have yet to say whether or not they will vote in the presidential election.

The political parties represented in the federal parliament are the Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP), the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP), the Nepal Workers Peasants Party (NWPP), and the representatives in the state parliament are Hamro Nepali Party and the Federal Samajwadi Party.

The RPP has called a meeting of the Central Performance Committee after 11 a.m. today to decide on the presidential election, while the Federal Parliamentary Party will meet tomorrow morning. Both parties are preparing to make a decision on the meeting’s start time.

The ruling 9-party alliance has nominated Nepali Congress MP Ram Chandra Poudel for the presidential election, while the opposition CPN-UML has nominated Subas Chandra Nemwang.
