KATHMANDU: The Election Commission (EC) said it would submit the report of election results to the President by December 8.

It has also planned to make public the result of the first-past-the-post (FPTP) election to the House of Representatives and Provincial Assembly within three days of the election.

Chief Election Commissioner Dinesh Kumar Thapaliya said that it would start counting the votes immediately after all ballot boxes are collected.

According to the EC, every polling center will have three layers of security.

An effective security arrangement is in place that Nepal Army persons reach the incident site within 30 minutes in case of any untoward situation.

There are over 17.9 million voters enlisted for this election in Nepal. Anyone completing 18 years by November 19 will be an eligible voter.

The EC has managed 10,892 polling stations and 22,227 voting centers.

Similarly, there are 141 temporary polling centers where some 450 thousand voters can cast votes.
