Chitwan, June 22: The Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) has amended its party statute with a focus on widening internal representation and strengthening inclusive leadership provisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to Ganesh Parajuli, a member of the statute amendment committee, the revised provisions ensure the election of three vice-presidents, including at least one woman. Similarly, the party will now have two general secretaries and five joint general secretaries, with a mandatory requirement that at least one of the joint general secretaries be a woman. The restructuring aims to enhance women\u2019s participation in leadership positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Under the new arrangement, the party will also appoint one treasurer, two joint treasurers, one spokesperson, and three joint spokespersons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The central committee will comprise 151 members, including 99 elected members and a president elected through internal polls. In addition, 51 members will be nominated by the party president through an inclusive selection process. Vice-presidents from the seven provinces will serve as ex-officio members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Previously, the statute allowed the party president to appoint only a treasurer and a spokesperson. The latest amendments expand this authority to include the nomination of one vice-president, one general secretary, and two joint general secretaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Parajuli said the changes reflect the \u201cspirit of inclusion\u201d and ensure broader participation of women at different levels of the party structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Under the revised statute, five central committee members will be elected from each province among the 99 elected seats, with at least two women in each province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The statute also introduces mandatory representation based on provincial demographics, including Indigenous, Dalit, Tharu, and Madheshi Dalit communities from specified provinces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ongoing three-day general convention of the party, which began on Sunday in Chitwan, is holding its closed-door session today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
