General Convention Fever Grips Nepal’s CPN-UML With KP Sharma Oli And Ishwar Pokharel On The Fray To Be Next Party Chair
Ishwar Pokharel, Senior Vice-Chair of the CPN-UML, interacts with party cadres and supporters at the party headquarters in Lalitpur, Nepal, on December 6, 2025. Pokharel prepares to compete for the top post, challenging KP Sharma Oli in the upcoming general convention scheduled for December 13-15. While challenging Oli for the top post in the party, Pokharel also stresses the need to reinstate the two-term leadership limit in UML's statute and to enforce clear standards on party discipline, auditing, and organizational autonomy. The CPN-UML central committee meeting held earlier in October decides to hold its 11th general convention in the second week of December. The meeting at the time also passes the political report presented by party chair KP Sharma Oli. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto)
