Champa Adhikari Resigns from Rastriya Prajatantra Party

Kathmandu. Champa Adhikari, central secretary of the Rastriya Prajatantrik Mahila Sangathan, close to RPP, has resigned from the party. She announced her departure, stating that the party has abandoned its core principles, and she will no longer be a member of the party.

On Thursday, in a letter to RPP Chairman Rajendra Lingden via social media, she stated that she had to leave the party because the core agendas carried by RPP have been overshadowed.

'Even though the majority of the people in Nepal are associated with the Sanatana Hindu tradition and the Omkar family, we have not been able to raise those issues with the necessary firmness at any level – be it on the streets, in parliament, or in government. Therefore, I have concluded that you have failed to effectively lead these issues and ideology,' Adhikari said.

Although she joined RPP due to its agenda and ideology, she stated that the internal democracy within the party has been weakened, and the core agendas have been gradually forgotten for personal positions and interests. 'A culture that prioritizes flattery over criticism has further weakened the party. In the past, we made many efforts for reform, but all of them were in vain,' Adhikari said.

Previously, the party had taken disciplinary action against her.
