Nepali Congress President-Elect Gagan Thapa to Take Oath on Saturday

Newly elected Nepali Congress President Gagan Thapa is set to take the oath of office on Saturday afternoon. According to the party, the swearing-in ceremony will be held at 2 PM at the Nepali Congress central office in Sanepa, Lalitpur. Thapa was elected president during the party’s 15th General Convention. The party finalized the schedule for his oath-taking ceremony shortly after the vote-counting process was completed, paving the way for the formal beginning of his tenure as party president. The oath-taking ceremony marks an important step in the leadership transition within Nepal’s oldest political party. Thapa’s election is expected to be followed by the formation of the party’s leadership team and the continuation of organizational activities under the new leadership. However, the swearing-in ceremony for other office-bearers and Central Working Committee members will be held separately. The Nepali Congress is preparing to organize their oath-taking ceremony after the Dashain festival. The party’s decision to hold the president’s oath-taking ceremony first will formally initiate Thapa’s responsibilities as president, while the remaining leadership team is expected to assume its roles following the festival. Further details regarding the oath-taking arrangements for other elected officials are expected to be announced by the party in due course.
