KATHMANDU, Feb 22: In an apparent bid to set up a separate organizational structure following the vertical split in the party after Prime Minister KP Shamra Oli’s House dissolution move on December 20 last year, the rival faction of the ruling Nepal Communist Party (NCP) led by Pushpa Kamal Dahal and Madhav Kumar Nepal has finalized the names of chairpersons and secretaries in 64 districts across the county.
The Dahal-Nepal faction’s central secretariat, which was supposed to name the leadership across the country, also named chairs and secretaries of four metropolitan cities including Kathmandu, Lalitpur, Bharatpur and Birgunj. The faction’s leadership in the two other metropolises -- Biratnagar and Pokhara -- is yet to be decided.
