Election Commission urged for effective enforcement of code of conduct

Kathmandu: The Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) has urged the Election Commission for its effective role in enforcing the election code of conduct.

Issuing a press statement on Sunday, RPP Spokesperson Mohan Shrestha blamed the political party having the election symbol ‘Bell’ for causing sound pollution by ringing bells rampantly and violating the election code of conduct.

“It is worrying that EC was not paying heed to such gross violation of the election code of conduct,” RPP said, wondering if other parties also sport their election symbols physically and EC accepts that as well.

The party also expressed concern over the incident that occurred in Rautahat that intends to disrupt social unity and harmony and foment communal hatred.

The RPP appealed to all sides concerned to contribute from their side to maintain social harmony and unity.
