The Prime Minister has stated that all the security personnel including the temporary police who are shouldering an important responsibility being assigned for maintaining security in the House of Representative and State Assembly elections in course of institutionalizing the federal democratic republic by ending the constitutional transition are worthy of praise.
“The government is committed to bringing to book those people involved in such heinous incidents. Any anti-election activities of this nature cannot restrain the enthusiasm shown by the Nepali citizens towards the election and the citizens right to vote,” the Prime Minister stated.
The Prime Minister has strongly denounced all violent activities directed against the election including this ‘cowardly incident’ in which a bomb was hurled at the unarmed citizens and temporary police deputed for election security.
Stating that the government would leave no stone unturned to conduct the election in a fear-free and peaceful manner, the PM has appealed to all the citizens to participate in the election without any fear. RSS
