Kathmandu Mayor Balendra Shah to Join RSP for March Polls

Kathmandu Mayor Balendra Shah to Join RSP for March Polls

In Nepal, a popular mayor named Balendra Shah, who is also a rapper, might join a new political party called the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) for the upcoming March elections.

The RSP is trying to bring together influential people to challenge the old political parties.

Another important figure, Kulman Ghising, who is known for solving Nepal's electricity problems, is also in talks to join the RSP.

Both Shah and Ghising are very popular, especially among young people.

They want to work together to win a lot of seats in the government to make it more stable.

Shah might run for office in a place called Jhapa-5, which could lead to an exciting competition with a former prime minister.

The RSP is growing quickly because many people are tired of the old politicians and want change.

The party hopes to make a big impact in the elections and create a better future for Nepal.
