The Pragatisheel Loktantrik Party was formally announced on Sunday in Kathmandu following the unification of Dr. Baburam Bhattarai-led Nepal Samajwadi Party (Naya Shakti), Janardan Sharma’s Pragatisheel Rastriya Abhiyan, and Santosh Pariyar, who recently left the Rastriya Swatantra Party.
Former Prime Minister Dr. Bhattarai officially unveiled the party’s name during the program and will serve in a guardian role.
The party will have 151 central members and has been registered with the Election Commission (EC) under the leadership of Durga Sob.
