KATHMANDU: The Ministry of Home Affairs assured on Saturday that foolproof security arrangements had been made for nomination filing for the second phase of civic polls.

Joint Secretary at MoHA Deepak Kafle said the parties, their candidates and the public had nothing to fear. “Tight, dependable and reliable security arrangements have been made as some disgruntled forces have threatened to boycott elections and foil the nomination process.” “MoHA has already carried out comprehensive security mapping to chalk out strategies in sensitive areas,” he said.
