Aiming at the upcoming elections, District Election Office Kavrepalanchok is conducting a voter education program. Election Commissioner Umesh Rai informed that the voter education program started under the supervision of the commission is being conducted effectively.
He said that education was given to the voters by going door-to-door in order to conduct the election in a dignified manner.
Voter education programs were conducted in all places of the district under the leadership of local volunteers. According to the Commission, sample voting has been done in all places of the district and the results are satisfactory.
