Bibeksheel Sajha Party, along with Naya Shakti Party, abstained from voting in the 2018 presidential and vice-presidential elections.[15]

Split and reformation

The party split on 11 January 2019 when party co-coordinator Ujwal Bahadur Thapa, along with 16 central committee members filed an application to register his old party, Bibeksheel Nepali Dal at the Election Commission.[16]

The two parties announced on 20 October 2020 that they were in talks for reunification.[17] The two parties officially announced their reunification on 9 December 2020, twenty-three months after their split. It was also announced that Sajha Party leader Rabindra Mishra would serve as chairman of the new party and Bibeksheel Nepali chairman Milan Pandey would be the co-ordinator.[18]

However, 13 central committee members including vice-chair Ajeeta Rai and office management secretary Sangita Bataju who had opposed the second unification decided not to go with the merge.[19] The group later formed Nepal Bibeksheel Party under the leadership of Karma Tamang. [20]
