The Road to March 5, 2026

We have entered a decisive election moment. The fruition of the sacrifice made by our young Gen-Z. With the House of Representatives polls set for 5 March 2026 and the election code of conduct now in force, the country has a renewed opportunity to choose integrity, competence, and a clear vision for the future.

This election urges me to reflect on my initiatives so far. With gratitude for the progress made and renewed determination to do more, better, and faster.

Ra Swa Pa: The Unity Nepal Has Been Waiting For

After a long struggle, we have reached a turning point where the old politics must finally come to an end. Consensus is not built easily. It requires an end to ego, personal sacrifice, and a shared hope for the future. This is why Nepal needed Balen Shah. He showed us what leadership looks like when it is free from political baggage, and how new thinking can shake the system for the better.

This unity raises a signal. Nepal is ready for new faces, new energy, and a new political approach.
The real task now is to translate this hope into governance that delivers.

Why Tanahun Matters to Me

 I was born in Gorkha, just next door to Tanahun. So this region is not just a constituency on the map, but part of the community that shaped who I am.

Tanahun-1 was the first place I ran for national office, and it was here that the people placed their trust in me, electing me to the House of Representatives with a substantial mandate. That victory was not only a personal milestone but a testament to public confidence in ideas rooted in competence, good governance, and inclusive development, values I carry into every decision.

School Reform Program

Education Reforms has been one of my many initiatives. In partnership with United World Schools (UWS) across 10 schools, an initiative was launched with an aim to create an inviting learning environment through painting and renovation efforts that encourage children to attend school and engage in learning.

Laying the Groundwork for a Connected Tanahun

The long-neglected, dusty, and narrow Tanahun-1 section of the Prithvi Highway was upgraded and completed in 2080. Built with loan support from the Asian Development Bank, this international-standard highway has improved road safety, eased mobility, and reduced travel time and transportation costs. The upgrade has strengthened Tanahun’s connectivity with national economic corridors and everyday livelihoods.

My focus has always been on quality infrastructure that delivers real improvements in people’s daily lives. From safer highways to better connectivity, these investments were made to reduce travel time and costs, improve road safety, and link Tanahun more closely with national economic activity.

Visited all the 5 municipalities in Tanahun-1, participating in over 20 local events

This matters because I believe leadership must be visible and grounded in people’s everyday realities. By being politically present in schools, municipalities, and community spaces, I ensure that representation translates into real, on-the-ground improvements. These engagements keep me accountable to the people of Tanahun-1 and allow local priorities to directly shape my work.

From Tanahun to Nepal

Tanahun provided a proving ground for a national vision. This is where politics became personal. Not in offices or stages, but in conversations, shared silences, and lived realities. Tanahun gave me trust and with it, humility. These images capture what words often miss: time spent listening, learning, and being accountable.

While a parliamentarian is elected by a constituency, the responsibility extends far beyond it. The trust placed in me carries a broader obligation, that is to contribute to national debates, strengthen institutions, and help shape policies that serve all Nepalis. Representation begins locally, but leadership must think nationally.

Every visit, every conversation, every shared concern deepened my responsibility.

Representing Nepal Internationally

Beyond Parliament, my responsibility extends to how Nepal is represented internationally. Engaging with global policymakers, development partners, and diaspora communities is essential to advance Nepal’s economic interests, credibility, and voice in the world.

These moments reflect an effort to place Nepal confidently in international conversations, on development, climate, governance, and growth while ensuring that global engagement remains grounded in national priorities and public interest.
