What began as a casual involvement evolved into a deeply meaningful journey. It is a matter of great pride for me to have reached these positions and to have fulfilled my responsibilities to the best of my ability. None of this would have been possible without the continuous support, guidance, and collaboration of my mentors, colleagues, fellow members, and well-wishers associated with the organization.

As a leader, I extend my sincere gratitude to the founders, patrons, former and current central and branch executives, central advisors, presidential advisors, members at all levels, and all well-wishers who have supported and trusted me throughout my tenure. I would also like to express my heartfelt appreciation to all central committee members and branch working committees who directly contributed during my tenure.

During my leadership, we ensured recognition of excellence and encouragement of others through fair and comprehensive evaluation, including the distribution of awards.

I owe my initial journey in Pahilo Paila Nepal to Mr. Bishnu Raj Mahat, Founding President of the Butwal Branch and Former Senior Vice President, whose guidance and encouragement played a vital role in my growth within the organization. I remain deeply grateful for his continuous support, mentorship, and guidance until the final phase of leadership transition.

I would also like to acknowledge the founding members of the Butwal Branch—Arjun Paudel, Shanti Aryal, Bharat Jung Kshetri, Laxmi K.C., Abhishek Parajuli, Anusuman Pokharel, and others—for their invaluable contributions. My sincere thanks also go to Ayush Paudel, Santosh Kharel, and all members who have remained actively involved since the early days. I apologize if I have unintentionally missed mentioning any names.

I am grateful to the then President Pratibha G.C. for appointing me as a Central Working Committee Member within a short period of my involvement, and to Founding General Secretary Vijay Khadka for playing a key role in that process. I would also like to acknowledge Bhim Ghimire, Bimal Gharti Kshetri, Sajan Thapa, Suraj Giri, Manisha Sahani Kshetri, Karishma Pantha, Sabina Sangraula, Bishal Basnet, Pavitra Khadka, and others whose support, knowledge, and influence significantly contributed to my growth.

I remain especially thankful to Vijay Khadka for providing me with the opportunity to work within the Secretariat early in my tenure. This experience allowed me to apply my personal learnings to institutional development and contribute toward strengthening the organization structurally while also mentoring others.

On a personal note, I extend my gratitude to my mentors Bishnu Raj Mahat and Manisha Sahani Kshetri for their constant support, as well as to my beloved wife Sushmita Thapa for her unwavering encouragement. I am equally thankful to Immediate Past President Nirajan Dhamala for his support throughout my tenure.

Regarding institutional governance, I consistently emphasized that the organizational structure should be formally incorporated into the constitution rather than being limited to regulations. While earlier frameworks were guided by regulations, I strongly advocated for constitutional inclusion to ensure long-term stability.

The contributions of Founding General Secretary Vijay Khadka in drafting the constitution, policies, and institutional identity—including name and logo—are invaluable and will always be remembered. Similarly, Sajan Thapa played a key role in administrative processes during the organization's formal establishment.

I have always believed that strong legal and structural foundations are essential for long-term institutional sustainability. Despite consistent efforts, constitutional amendments were delayed due to various circumstances. However, after the Third General Convention, upon being unanimously elected as President, I led the constitutional convention held on Kartik 2–3, 2081 BS, resulting in the successful adoption of the First Amendment of the Constitution (2075).

I extend my sincere appreciation to Nirajan Dhamala and Santosh Kharel for their contributions to the drafting committee, and to Binod Basyal for his relentless efforts in completing the legal registration process, ensuring official recognition of the amended constitution.

Following this, several key regulations were introduced during the Fourth Central General Convention:

1. Organizational Operation Regulation (Second Amendment 2082)
2. Financial Administration Regulation 2082
3. Digital Communication & Publication Regulation 2082
4. Election Directive 2082

I would like to thank Ayush Paudel, Krishna Bahadur Raut, Binod Basyal, Santosh Kharel, and Sandesh Pandey for their significant roles in drafting these regulations. While I led these initiatives, their contributions were equally important.

Recognizing the importance of digital transformation, we initiated the digitalization of membership systems early on. During my tenure, we successfully developed a website, digitized membership processes, and established branch-level digital interfaces. The organization now maintains centralized digital records with unlimited storage capacity.

I am proud to have contributed significantly to this digital transformation. I extend my heartfelt thanks to Webrise Solution Pvt. Ltd. and team members Sandesh Pandey, Bipin Khatri, and Pratik Kshetri for their continuous support in turning this vision into reality. Special thanks also to Arjun Remmi for supporting digital content creation.

In terms of organizational development, I would like to acknowledge Smriti Kafle for financial support efforts, Krishna Raut and Binod Basyal for secretariat management, and Milan Luitel and Diwas Khatiwada for organizational expansion. I am also grateful to Ayush Paudel for stepping in during challenging times.

To expand the organization's reach and strengthen its financial base, we also registered the organization with the Social Welfare Council. I thank Binod Basyal for his motivation and legal advisor Dev Bahadur Mahat for facilitating the legal process.

I extend my sincere gratitude to all central and branch committees and members who contributed to making my tenure successful. I also congratulate the newly formed Central Working Committee and wish them a successful tenure ahead.

In conclusion, while I was able to accomplish many plans for the organization, some remain incomplete. I am committed to continuing collaboration with future leadership to achieve these goals. I remain fully dedicated to the organization's growth and development.

Moving forward, I aim to focus on capacity building through the formation of a Training of Trainers (ToT) group under the organization's leadership, to enhance personality and leadership development and strengthen institutional recognition.

The Organizational Development Framework will always remain one of my key priorities.

Finally, I sincerely thank everyone who supported me directly and indirectly throughout this journey. I apologize for any unintentional omissions of names and for any mistakes made during my tenure.
