The Election Commission has been preparing to bring forth election schedule, announcement of election code of conduct and registration of political parties.

Election code of conduct has been drafted and election schedule underway, EC said, adding that after the approval of election programme schedule, the registration of political parties begins.

However, the consultation with political parties for election code of conduct is yet to be held. The code of conduct comes into effect after its approval following parties' nod, according to EC Spokesperson Raj Kumar Shrestha.

"Other activities will be forwarded after the registration of political parties," Shrestha added.

President on the recommendation of the government decided to dissolve the House of Representatives (HoR) and announced mid-term polls on April 30 and May 10.

Meanwhile, hearing on the writ petitions filed against the government's move to dissolve the HoR has been continued by the constitutional bench led by Chief Justice Cholendra Shumsher JB Rana.
