Concern grows over whether RSP Chair is stepping in as the Prime Minister alternative for India visit

While there has been no progress regarding Prime Minister Balendra Shah’s foreign visit, Rabi Lamichhane, the chairman of the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP), is preparing to travel to India on June 1. Since the Prime Minister is not a party chairman, Chairman Lamichhane is set to visit even before Balendra Shah.

Experts have stated that the visit of a party chief prior to that of the head of government is not something to be suspected.
