DHANUSHA, November 20: Voting came to a halt at the 'B' center of the Kamala Municipality-6 Billet Bauku Mavi Madan polling station in Dhanusa.


Voting was halted from 9 AM when the polling officer found that the direct ballot papers of the House of Representatives (HoR) were given to the voters instead of the direct ballot papers of the provincial assemblies. At that time, 70 votes had already been cast.

At that time, 39 people had already voted. After all-party consensus, those 39 people were allowed to vote again.
