The Election Commission has implemented the election code of conduct to make the local level elections dignified. But not only the parties participating in the election and their candidates and activists but also the Prime Minister himself has been running throughout the country in the election campaign by flouting the election code of conduct.

The government, which has to be abided by the rules and regulations prepared by the state mechanism, has forgotten its own dignity and has moved forward as a cadre of the party.While addressing the election rally of the ruling coalition, Prime Minister Deuba reached Chitwan via Biratnagar using Nepal Army’s helicopter with the security personnel back and forth.

However, it is a gross violation of the election code of conduct to use the power of positiona and state mechanism as a leader of a political party and not as the Prime Minister.
