The protestors have said that nothing has been done even when reported on the irregularities in the elections to the election officer, the security and the district election office, so they demanded to set up a high level investigation committee to look into the irregularities in the elections.
However, the Election Commission has said that the elections have been extremely transparent, free and fair. Concerning the demand for setting up a high level investigation, the chief election commissioner has said that he does not see it necessary, as the Election Court is there to take the election related disputes.
