In the Constituent Assembly election, the NRP won one seat through the proportional representation vote.[3] The party selected Buddha Ratna Manandhar as its representative in the Assembly.[4]
In July 2008, NRP was one of three minor parties which opposed an amendment of the interim constitution, enabling the formation of a government by simple majority in the Constituent Assembly.[5] NRP called for support to the Maoist-nominated candidate Ram Raja Prasad Singh in the 2008 presidential vote.[6]
