Election Commission has dismissed the complaint against the nomination of Prime Minister and Nepali Congress Chairman Sher Bahadur Deuba for the House of Representatives.

As the Election Commission dismissed the complaint against Deuba’s nomination, his candidacy in Dsadeldhura will continue. The election commission said that the date of birth on the voter’s ID card was misprinted and the complaint against Deuba’s nomination was not legal.

Karna Bahadur Malla, the senior vice-chairman of Nepali Congress BP, filed a complaint with the election officer’s office saying that Deuba’s date of birth in the citizenship and date of birth in the voter’s list is different and his candidature should be cancelled.
