Rastriya Prajatantra Party (Chand)

The Rastriya Prajatantra Party (Chand), often abbreviated as RPP (Chand), was a political party in Nepal. It represented a faction that splintered from the original Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP). This faction was led by Lokendra Bahadur Chand.

The Rastriya Prajatantra Party (Chand) advocated for a constitutional monarchy and a Hindu Rashtra (Hindu nation). It participated in various elections in Nepal and held seats in the parliament at different times. The party's influence fluctuated, reflecting the changing political landscape of Nepal.

The party's formation and subsequent activities were often related to internal disputes and power struggles within the broader RPP movement. These disputes often centered on ideological differences and leadership ambitions.

The Rastriya Prajatantra Party (Chand), along with other factions of the RPP, aimed to uphold the legacy of the Panchayat system, albeit within a democratic framework. Key policy areas included promoting nationalism, preserving traditional Nepali culture, and advocating for economic development.

The party eventually reunified with other RPP factions, dissolving its distinct identity to form a larger unified political entity under the Rastriya Prajatantra Party name. Lokendra Bahadur Chand played a significant role in the overall RPP's political activities before, during, and after his faction's existence.
