The Election Commission has instructed not to survey or publish opinions on polls on any candidate and political party who have given their candidature in the upcoming elections.
The commission issued a press release today and stated that no survey or announcement of opinion on the results of any candidate or political party will be allowed.
“As the Election Code of Conduct, 2079 has been implemented, action will be taken against those who conduct a survey or publish opinions on polls, contrary to the Code of Conduct”, said the election commission.
In addition, the Commission has warned that action will be taken if it is found that opinions or propaganda are being spread in such a way as to adversely affect or obstruct the election.
