Nepali Congress President Gagan Kumar Thapa has proposed a constitutional limit allowing an individual to serve no more than two terms as prime minister. The proposal was included in a political report he presented at the party’s 15th general convention.
The report also calls for a “none of the above” option on ballots, voting rights for Nepalis living abroad and a more participatory and transparent electoral system. Thapa said corruption would not be protected.
Key proposals in Thapa’s report
- Limit any individual to a maximum of two terms as prime minister
- Introduce a “none of the above” option in elections
- Extend voting rights to Nepalis abroad
- Make the electoral system more participatory and transparent
The proposals were presented as part of Thapa’s political report at the Nepali Congress convention.
