According to Priya she wanted to be responsible for the nation and joining the politics is one way for doing so. She added, “Once you have won a title in Miss Nepal, especially the one among the top three’s, many people expect to see you as a cine actor, model, fashion designer or a host of any television programs, next. But, I choose politics being a youth and I want to learn from those who are experienced in this field.”
