The commission has directed to set up of press corners at every polling station to provide easy access for journalists to receive information and to appoint an assistant election officer or any other employee of the relevant election officer's office to facilitate the flow of information.
Similarly, at the beginning of the counting process, necessary arrangements should be made so that the video and photojournalists can take pictures and visuals of the counting place, and the vote results obtained at every hour of the counting will be consolidated by the employees, parties, candidates, and representatives in the counting and entered into the information system of the Election Commission by the office of the relevant Chief Election Officer, according to Rishi Ram Bhusal, Assistant Spokesperson of the Commission.
The election officials have been urged to provide notification of the vote result using loudspeakers or display boards or other means based on the agreement between political parties and candidates.
