KATHMANDU, MARCH 8 The Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) is poised to win nearly two-thirds of the seats when direct and proportional seats are combined. The RSP is ahead in 18 seats after winning 107 lawmakers in the direct election. It has a good chance of winning the support of 125 lawmakers when both are combined. There are nine seats remaining where it has not taken the lead, and the outcome in some of those seats could change, potentially allowing the RSP to increase its total number of lawmakers beyond 125 if it secures victories in those remaining contests. At least 125 seats were won in the direct election. The commission counted about 2.9 million votes nationwide in the proportional representation election. According to current data, the RSP has received over 1.4 million (1,461,381) votes as of 11:10 am, representing approximately 51 per cent. The Nepali Congress received 494,291 votes, or about 17 per cent. The CPN-UML has received a total of 408,399 votes, accounting for 13.5 per cent. Aside from these, the NCP (193,550) and RPP (106,396) have exceeded the 3% threshold. The Shram Sanskriti Party has 59,251 votes (2 per cent) but has yet to cross the electoral threshold. Other parties receive a lower proportion of votes. However, if the current ratio remains constant, the RSP will constitute more than half of the proportional representation. Based on the Election Commission's calculation method for the proportional representation system, the RSP is expected to receive approximately 61 MPs. According to the current ratio, the Nepali Congress is expected to have 21 seats and the CPN-UML 16. The NCP is expected to get eight seats, while the RPP is expected to get four. When the threshold is calculated and the votes of parties that do not meet it are deducted, the number of seats may change. To secure a two-thirds majority in the 275-member House of Representatives, 184 seats must be obtained. Given the current situation, the RSP is expected to receive 125 seats directly and 61 through proportional representation. If the current ratio remains constant under proportional representation, it appears to have reached nearly two-thirds of the vote. The two-thirds vote is especially important in the House of Representatives. The House of Representatives decides on impeachment and action against constitutional officials, as well as motions to amend the constitution, with a two-thirds majority. However, a two-thirds majority in the House of Representatives is insufficient; a two-thirds majority in the National Assembly is also necessary.
