Commission On Delineation Of Constituency Submits Report

Issue 32, August 11, 2013

By KTM Metro Reporter

 

August 9, 2013: a five-member Commission on Delineation Of Constituency (CDC) led by former justice Tahir Ali Ansari submitted its report on the delineation of constituencies to Chairman of Interim Election Council Khil Raj Remgi yesterday, according to the RSS news posted on ‘gorkhapatraonline.com.’

 

Talking to the reporters after turning over the report to Chairman Regmi, Chairman of CDC Ansari said that the government would make public the report after going through it in detail. “We are ethically not able to say anything about the changes and some major highlight mentioned in the report,” said Ansari. The CDC’s term is expiring on August 10.

 

Spokesperson for CDC Tek Prasad Dhungana has said that the government has not given the CDC an authority to say anything about the report.

 

Members of the CDC are Netra Dhital, Dambar Chemjong and Prof. Dr. Chuda Raj Upreti. Legal secretary at the PM Office Raju Man Singh Malla is the member secretary of the CDC. Upreti became the member of CDC on July 29 following the resignation of Dr. Madhu Nidhi Tiwari.

 

The government set up the CDC on June 13, 2013 with a one-month term to complete the delineation of constituencies but the government had to extend its term twice to complete its task.

 

The CDC was to review the existing 240 electoral constituencies following the population census of 2011.

 

The presidential ordinance has set the total number of members in the upcoming CA at 491 electing 240 directly from the constituencies, and indirectly 240, and the president nominating 11 members.
