In his resignation letter, he confirmed that he was stepping down from his position as a provincial assembly member elected from Baglung constituency 2 (2) in the 2079 general elections.
Kunwar was reportedly an aspirant for a ministerial post but resigned after being left out of the cabinet. He had been elected as a direct representative from the same constituency.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Surendra Raj Pandey reshuffled his cabinet on the same day, appointing eight new ministers from both the Nepali Congress and CPN-UML.
