Supreme Court Upholds Election Commission's Decision in Dhanusha
The Supreme Court declined an interim order against the Election Commission's annulment of RSP leader Kishori Sah's candidacy in the recent Nepal elections. This resulted in NCP leader Matrika Yadav securing victory in Dhanusha 1. Sah's candidacy was voided due to his inclusion in a financial blacklist.

In a noteworthy decision, the Supreme Court on Sunday denied issuing an interim order contesting the Election Commission's annulment of Kishori Sah's candidacy for the Dhanusha constituency.
This decision meant victory for Nepali Communist Party leader Matrika Yadav in the March 5 polls, despite Sah's previous high voter count.
Sah had filed a writ questioning the legitimacy of his candidacy's cancellation, attributed to his listing in a financial blacklist by the Election Commission. The outcome reaffirms Sah's disqualification, solidifying Yadav’s electoral win.
