A resident of Baglung, Kunwar filed his candidacy on Thursday as an independent candidate from the constituency that also has Chairman Prachanda as a contender.
Kunwar emerging from the Election Office said he was not against any individual rather he filed nomination for making a constitution in the country.
Kunwar had released a video a few days ago saying he was contesting with Prachanda in Kathmandu-10 in the next CA adding he is sure to defeat Prachanda.
In the video that begins with a slogan ‘prachanda jaha uthchhan, padam teibata jitchhan meaning wherever Prachanda contests, Padam wins there, many people are shown saying they are willing to vote Padam instead of Prachanda.
