Elections will be held on stipulate date : Minister Gyawali

February 18, Kathmandu: Minister for Foreign Affairs Pradeep Kumar Gyawali has claimed that the mid-term poll will be held on stipulated time i.e. on April 30 and May 10 this year.

Addressing the 35th-anniversary function of the Dhulikhel Municipality at Dhulikhel in Kavrepalanchowk on Wednesday, Minister Gyawali said that the country was focused on preparation for the election and reiterated the election would be held within the stipulated date.

He said the incumbent government was working on the agenda mentioned in the party manifesto but some people tried to make the post of prime minister a ‘musical chair’ and ascend to the chair of the PM ‘turn by turn’ and push the country towards instability.

He claimed that the incumbent government had succeeded to resolve the issue relating to a border dispute with India by tabling the matter to the Indian side during his visit to India.

The Minister shared that no other government had been able to incorporate India-encroached Kalapani, Lipulekh and Limpiyadhura in the official map of Nepal.
