Newly elected House of Representatives (HoR) member from the Ilam constituency-2, Suhang Nembang, has said he would always value the votes of his supporters as a lawmaker.
He pledged to deliver as the legislature by acknowledging the faith of his voters and the ballots he achieved during the election.
Nembang, the CPN (UML) candidate for the Ilam-2 by-election of the HoR, said this while receiving a certificate of his election in the post amidst a programme organised by the Chief Election Officer here today. He pledged to serve the best interests of his voters and the folks of Ilam.
Nembang, son of the HoR member the late Subas Chandra Nembang, said his decision to join the politics is to work on the 'incomplete dreams and plans' of his father. He expressed gratitude to all those who helped him get elected on the post.
On the occasion, Chief Election Officer, Keshab Prasad Ghimire, presented the certificate to the newly elected member.
The HoR by-election in Ilam-2 was warranted following the demise of the then-member Subash Chandra Nembang on September 12, 2023, and the party had decided to field his son in the by-polls.
