EC Reopens Voter Registration for a Week
The Election Commission (EC) decided to resume the voter registration process for a week. The EC took the decision last Thursday to reopen voter registration for a week beginning August 17. The EC has said that it has extended the registration programme following requests from various political parties and the public in order to give a chance to those who have not registered themselves yet on the new electoral role.
The EC had registered 12.3 million voters with photo and biometrics by July 15, when a three-year-long voter registration programme was concluded.
Prez’s Concern on Polls Preparation

The President expressed his concern on election preparation while meeting the Chairperson of the Interim Election Council, Khil Raj Regmi, at the Presidential Palace last Tuesday.
During the meeting, Regmi informed the President that the government was holding dialogues with the CPN-Maoist-led 33-party alliance in a bid to woo them towards the CA polls.
