Bharatpur Metropolitan City Mayor Renu Dahal resigned from her post on Friday.
She tendered her resignation to file candidacy for the post of mayor in the Bharatpur Metropolitan City.
Dahal submitted her resignation letter to Deputy Mayor Parbai Shah Thakuri this afternoon.
"The mayor has submitted her resignation. It has already been approved," Thakuri said.
Leader Dahal resigned from her post after the Election Commission said that all the local elected representatives need to resign before filing nominations if they want to contest the local level elections slated for May 13.
