On Thursday, the Election Commission had approved their nomination in the two vacant seats.

The UCPN (M) nominated Pawan and Nadaf as its new CA members a day after the Supreme Court gave its verdict against a writ petition filed by Matrika Yadav and Jagat Yadav, the two former UCPN (M) lawmakers, challenging the decision of the Business Advisory Committee of the parliament to scrap their CA membership.
