The candidates of Druk Nyamrup Tshopa and Druk Chirwang Tshogpa of Gangzur-Minjey Constituency have put a complaint letter to the Election Office of Lhuentse against the former candidate of People’s Democratic Party, Sonam Jatsho.
The complainants said, Sonam Jatsho, who is not a registered member of PDP is confusing the voters by claiming he is the candidate of PDP from the constituency.
But PDP’s candidate for the constituency is 25-year-old Lobzang Dorji, who is also actively campaigning.
Sonam Jatsho, on the other hand told our reporter, Sonam Ugyen, that he is going to contest in the general round if the Party gets through primary. “That is why I am campaigning,” he said.
Since the Dzongkhag dispute settlement committee has been dissolved, the complaint letter has been forwarded to the Election Commission’s head office in Thimphu.
