Kathmandu. As the date of the election of members of the House of Representatives is approaching, the political parties have intensified their internal preparations. The Election Commission has proceeded with the work of the National Assembly and the House of Representatives member elections simultaneously. The commission has already appointed the district judge as the election officer for the National Assembly member election to be held on January 11.
