The party was formed after a split in the People's Socialist Party, Nepal, with some members citing the authoritarian and power-oriented nature of chairman Upendra Yadav as a factor.[8]

History

Formation

The dispute amongst members of the People's Socialist Party, Nepal arose when Yadav did not call a meeting with the party's central committee. He was criticized for neglecting demands for a more inclusive leadership and was accused of trying to turn the organization into a national party.[9] A faction led by Bhattaraj conducted a central committee meeting in Jadibuti, Kathmandu on 12 and 13 July 2021 which concluded in the formation of the Socialist Party of Nepal.[10]

A number of central committee members from the previous party, including Hisila Yami, Ganga Narayan Shrestha, Bhakta Bahadur Shah, Prashant Singh, Damber Khatiwada, Dan Bahadur Chaudhary, and Durga Sob, joined the new group.[11][9][12] A majority of central committee members from Lumbini and Gandaki provinces also joined the party, including former ministers Dan Bahadur Chaudhary and Govind Chaudhary. Former constituent assembly members Muhammad Okil Musalman and Chinak Kurmi also joined the party.[13][14]
