Perhaps for the first time in the country’s election history, Anil Adhikari, 22, has launched his own website (www.aniladhikari.com.np) for his election campaign.
In his website, Adhikari said he had filed his nomination to find a peaceful solution to the crisis facing the country. He said that people should not be barred from being ruled by their representatives for a long time.
Two slogans have been highlighted in the website. They are: “Age is just a number. Grey hair is not the sign of wisdom.” And “Ballot is stronger than bullet. Let’s bring revolution through ballot.”
A sports enthusiast, Adhikari is studying at the Bachelor’s level at the local Birendra Multiple Campus, Chitwan. In his biography, he has introduced himself as a quiz champion.
It could not be immediately known about the response from prospective voters to this Internet-savvy young political aspirant.
