The commission’s assistant spokesperson Surya Prasad Aryal said internal discussions had started as the date for the election to the post of the President should be done at least a month before the termination of the post as per the President and Vice-President Election Related Act-2017.

There is a provision that the commission EC should determine the election date and inform the government.
