The ruling Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) has invited proposals to purchase a house or land for its permanent central office in Kathmandu Valley, seeking at least three ropani of land or a suitable house connected to or near the Ring Road. Interested parties have 21 days to submit proposals, following a decision by the party’s central committee to move its office into a permanent structure owned by the party.
Party seeks a permanent, party-owned office
The proposal call follows a central committee meeting held on Asoj 17. At that meeting, the committee resolved that the RSP should relocate its central office to a permanent building under the party’s ownership. The latest invitation seeks a property that can fulfil that decision, with the party considering either land on which an office could be established or a house that could serve as the central office.
The party’s stated minimum requirement is three ropani of land. Its search is limited to Kathmandu Valley, with a preference for a site connected to or located near the Ring Road. The proposal call therefore sets out both a minimum size and a broad location requirement, while allowing offers for either land or an existing house.
Twenty-one-day window for proposals
Interested property owners or other parties with suitable offers have 21 days to submit proposals. The invitation opens a defined period for the RSP to receive options that meet its stated needs. The party has not, in the information provided, announced a purchase price, a budget, a specific neighbourhood or a date by which it expects to complete the acquisition.
The call is for proposals to buy property, rather than an announcement that a particular site has already been selected. Offers may relate to land or a house, provided they fit the party’s requirements in Kathmandu Valley and the stated preference for a location connected to or near the Ring Road. The three-ropani threshold applies to land sought by the party.
Move from the current office to a permanent structure
The central committee’s Asoj 17 decision provides the context for the property search: the party wants its central office to be housed in a permanent structure that it owns. The proposal process is the next stated step toward identifying a property for that purpose. No further details about the current office, the intended design of a future building or the practical arrangements for a move have been provided.
By inviting offers for both a house and land, the RSP has left open two routes to establishing the permanent office. A house could provide an existing structure, while a land purchase would allow the party to establish its office on a site of its own. The party’s notice, however, does not specify which option it prefers or whether it would consider properties beyond the stated minimum and location criteria.
The 21-day submission period gives the party an opportunity to receive proposals before considering properties for purchase. The RSP has not yet disclosed what evaluation process it will use, how many offers it expects or when a final decision may be made. Its stated objective is to secure a permanent central office in Kathmandu Valley in a property owned by the party.
