Nepali Congress has raised Gurung as the candidate for the President Election 2015.

A resident of Ilam District, Gurung had fought for democracy and spent many years in jail for the same charge. In the 2008 Constituent Assembly election he was elected to the assembly from the Ilam-3 constituency, winning 16,286 votes. At 73 years, Gurung was the oldest assembly member elected through the First Past the Post system. He was the acting chairman of the Constituent Assembly until the election of Subhas Chandra Nemwang to the post. The first session of the first Constitution Assembly chaired by Gurung ended the 270 years old monarchy in Nepal and declared Republic.

In July 2008, there were reports that Gurung is associated with a dissident tendency inside the Nepali Congress.
