Elections 2022

The counting of votes has already started in more than 30 districts across the country, following Sunday's general election.

According to Surya Prasad Aryal, assistant spokesperson at the Election Commission, the detailed data of the counting is yet to be received.

“Tentatively, vote counting has already started in more than 30 districts, which is more than half of the total districts of the country. In some districts, the counting of votes will begin by Monday afternoon,” said Aryal.

”The ballot boxes are still being transported in the remote areas. Some ballot boxes are being airlifted on a helicopter whereas, in the upper remote areas of the country, the ballot boxes are being taken on mules due to our geographical complexity,” added Aryal.

“However, the vote counting will begin as soon as the ballot boxes will reach the counting centres,” said the assistant spokesperson.
