Kathmandu. The alliance is broken in Lalitpur. Though the Nepali Congress and the CPN-Maoist Center coordinated the election, the CPN-Unified Socialist Party withdrew from the alliance in Lalitpur.
CPN-S has registered its candidature in Lalitpur Metropolitan City after the alliance broke down. Harikrishna Thapa and Usha Bajracharya have been nominated for the post of mayor and deputy mayor respectively.
The CPN (Maoist) had claimed for the post of mayor in Mahalakshmi municipality and Mahakal village. However, the Maoists were not ready for that.
