Kathmandu: The Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) has suspended its General Secretary and Spokesperson, Dr. Mukul Dhakal. The suspension was recommended by the party's disciplinary commission and subsequently approved by the central committee during a meeting held late Wednesday night.

The decision to take action against Dr. Dhakal follows internal discussions and reviews by the party's disciplinary body. Specific details regarding the reasons for his suspension have not been disclosed by the party.

In response to Dr. Dhakal's suspension, the RSP has made interim appointments to ensure continuity in party operations. Joint General Secretary Kabindra Burlakoti has been appointed as the Acting General Secretary, while Joint General Secretary Manish Jha will serve as the Acting Spokesperson.

These changes come as the RSP navigates internal challenges and aims to maintain stability and focus on its political agenda.
