KATHMANDU, JUNE 9

The Nepali Congress leadership has been urged to deliver electoral and political agenda to the people.

A subcommittee formed by the party to monitor, supervise and evaluate the Local Level Election-2022 made the suggestion while furnishing its report to party President and Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba.

The sub-committee led by coordinator and central member of the party Pradip Poudel submitted the report to President Deuba and committee coordinator and Vice-president Purna Bahadur Khadka. Poudel said in a press conference that although the NC garnered relatively more votes, it failed to meet expected result.

The party leadership has been asked to award election tickets to virtuous, energetic, practical and popular persons so that he/she can be victorious. The election manifesto must be attractive and logical.

Similarly, interacting with voters on local development works, forwarding the agenda related to voters, making education effective, understanding voters' psychology and adopting measures to add new voters were other suggestions provided to the party.

The voters should be reached out to with good work done by the party so that they could make informed choice in the election, the sub-committee report said, adding that modern technology could be adopted for election publicity. "Making electoral spending transparent is imperative," the report added.
