Kathmandu, Dec 17 : The Election Commission (EC) has made a new provision on use of flag during the election campaigning.
In the coming March 5 election to the House of Representatives (HoR), EC proposed a new provision in the election code of conduct, as per which, the political parties would not be allowed carrying more than 10 flags.
Such scheme is being introduced to curb the misuse of flag.
The office of the party or election candidate can place a flag prepared with fabric (3 x 4 feet) or have a signboard of same size. The political parties are not allowed to use digital board, flex, or glue signboard, and audio visual materials as the flag.
The proposed code of conduct has further reminded the political parties to not visit the voters’ doorstep in a group of over 25 persons.
The election campaigning will be further deterred using musical bands and pageants.
