PM Deuba casts his vote

DADELDHURA, June 28: Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba today cast his vote at the voting center set up at Asigram Higher Secondary School in Ganyapdhura rural municipality-1.

PM Deuba cast his vote at 8:07 am. His spouse, Arzu Rana Deuba, also cast her vote from the same voting center.

In a brief statement, PM Deuba said the local level elections were held so that the villages’ governments are established by the villagers themselves.

He expressed a belief that the constitution’s full-fledged implementation will take its course once the local government is established, and that the development works will move forward efficiently, rapidly and transparently.

The voting center at the Asigram Higher Secondary School is located 21 km southeast of the district headquarters. The PM also spoke with the local villagers. “We must take the election as a festival, so everyone must participate in the voting process,” PM said while returning after casting his vote.

PM Deuba had studied at Grade V at the same school. The secondary level was established at the school at his initiative. The PM will leave for Dhangadi today and return to Kathmandu only on Thursday. RSS
