Ramhari Khatiwada is leading the vote count for the open general secretary post at the Nepali Congress’s 15th General Convention, with 289 votes reported after the count reached 584. Dilliram Subedi is in second place with 187 votes, followed by Ajaybabu Shivakoti with 174. Counting is still underway, so the figures are an interim tally and do not establish the final result.
Khatiwada ahead as counting continues
The latest reported figures put Khatiwada 102 votes ahead of Subedi. Shivakoti is 13 votes behind Subedi and 115 behind the leader. The gap places Khatiwada clearly in front at this stage, but the count remains incomplete and the final order could change as additional votes are tallied.
The reported standings for the nine candidates are:
- Ramhari Khatiwada: 289 votes
- Dilliram Subedi: 187 votes
- Ajaybabu Shivakoti: 174 votes
- Devendraraj Kandel: 109 votes
- Bikas Koirala: 105 votes
- Rajiv Dhungana: 80 votes
- Rameshprasad Dhamala: 77 votes
- Amritkumar Aryal: 32 votes
- Bimalraj Kshetri: 21 votes
Kandel and Koirala are separated by four votes in the reported count. Dhungana and Dhamala are also close, with a three-vote difference. Aryal and Kshetri have the two lowest totals among the candidates listed in this update. These comparisons describe only the current figures; they do not indicate how many votes remain to be counted or predict the final outcome.
Results remain provisional
The count is for the open general secretary post in the Nepali Congress’s 15th General Convention. The available update says that 584 votes had been counted and provides the candidate figures above. It does not provide a completed tally, a count schedule or details about when the result is expected. With counting ongoing, the figures should be treated as a snapshot rather than a declaration of who has won.
The published figures show Khatiwada with the largest total so far, while Subedi and Shivakoti occupy the next two places. Kandel and Koirala are clustered behind them, followed by Dhungana and Dhamala. Aryal and Kshetri are further back in the current standings. The continuing count will determine whether those positions hold once the remaining votes are included.
The latest update is available from Khabarhub. No final result has been reported in the information available so far.
