A cadre of the Communist Party of Nepal- Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) holds the party flag outside the venue for the inauguration ceremony of the party's General Convention in Bhaktapur, Nepal, on December 13, 2025. The party claims the gathering is its largest so far, mobilizing supporters from across the country by reserving vehicles to bring cadres to the Valley. Over 2,200 delegates, including elected and nominated representatives, and 309 observers participate in the convention, which elects the party's new leadership. Around 10,000 volunteers are mobilized for organizational management, according to the organizer. The convention elects 15 office-bearers, including the party chair and 251 central committees. Another 10 percent of members are nominated. Although the party statute mandates a general convention every five years, this one is convened a year early. The 10th convention is held in Chitwan, Nepal, in December 2021. As the statute and policy convention concludes in September, the gathering focuses mainly on leadership selection. In the closed-door session, Oli is scheduled to present the political report, while General Secretary Shankar Pokhrel tables the organizational report. Senior Vice Chairman Ishwar Pokhrel registers a concept paper criticizing Oli's leadership style and raising concerns over internal party democracy, and announces a challenge to Oli for the party chair.
