A sufficient condition for the left orderability of the fundamental group of the \(r\)-th cyclic branched cover of a prime knot is the existence of certain non abelian representations of the knot group in \(SL_2(\mathbb{R})\). In this paper the author study the left orderability of the fundamental groups of cyclic branched covers of the rational knots \(C(2n+1,2m,2)\) in the Conway notation by using real points on the nonabelian \(SL_2(\mathbb{C})\)-character varieties of the knot group.
