The cabinet meeting of Nepal Government on Wednesday decided to hold the election of Provincial and Federal Council in two phases upon the request of the Election Commission.
As per the latest decision made by the Nepal's cabinet on Wednesday, the first phase of provincial and federal election will be held on November 26 followed by second on December 7.
"The election, which was slated for November 26, will be held in second phase too along with the previously declared one. The election of Province and the House of Representative will be held in two phases, the first will be held on the same date of 26, September and another on December 7," said Mohan Bahadur Basnet, Spokesperson for Government of Nepal.
The government had earlier announced the date for holding the remaining two tier election on November 26 which has the constitutional time bound of December, 2017.
"The issues regarding the head of the province and the capital will be solved through political dialogue and solved through political committee, the cabinet meeting decided. The National Resources and Fiscal Commission will be formed which will be created under the reference from constitutional body (for the distribution of resources)," Basnet added.
Nepal, which promulgated its new constitution in 2015, is on its way to the implementation of constitution which was endorsed by 90 percent lawmakers.
The new constitution has new system of government, that is multiple governments in the center and in the province, which is new for Nepal and still it has long way ahead to solve the problems which lie in front.
Though the government has announced split of the election of Provincial and Federal Council, it is still to decide on detail plans over when to hold election and in which of the area as it is still waiting for a report from the Electoral Constituency Delimitation Commission.
The dissatisfaction of the political parties over the determination of the constituencies has resulted in the delay of submission of the report but it is already available in the hands of political leaders.
Apart from the report over the constituency delimitation commission, the Election Commission on the other hand is still to get the essential laws for holding the election that is slated for two months afterwards.
The inactiveness of the government to take the bill to the parliament has parleyed preparations required to be made by the electoral body.
