Kathmandu, Mar. 7
The Election Commission Nepal
has registered the verdict of the Supreme Court issued about the ownership of
the name Nepal Communist Party (N C P) on Sunday.
Issuing a statement, the
election management body said that it received the information letter regarding
the verdict that the court had cancelled the earlier decision of the ECN to
register a party with the name.
Following the parliamentary
election in 2017, the two largest parties CPN (UML) and CPN (MC) were unified
to create a single party which was registered in the name ‘Nepal Communist
Party (N C P)’. However, the name was already given to Rishi Ram Kattel’s party
but the ECN created spaces between the abbreviated letters to make it different
than the earlier.
