In Kathmandu, Nepal, on February 28, 2026, former Kathmandu mayor Balendra Shah, known as Balen, and former television host and Deputy Prime Minister Rabi Lamichhane wave to supporters as they launch a joint election campaign across the Kathmandu Valley.

The campaign comes ahead of the March 5 parliamentary elections, with Shah set to contest from Jhapa-5 constituency in a high-profile race against CPN-UML chair KP Sharma Oli.
