Prime Minister Sushila Karki has called on major political parties to ensure the upcoming House of Representatives election—being held in challenging circumstances—is carried out successfully.

During a discussion with chiefs of the Nepali Congress, the CPN-UML and the Nepali Communist Party at the prime minister’s official residence in Baluwatar on Saturday, the prime minister urged them to participate actively in the polls and help create a conducive environment for that.

Karki told the leaders that the election must be viewed as an investment in the nation’s future and as a necessary step towards securing a stable and durable democracy. She emphasised that holding successful elections is a shared responsibility.

“Let us make this election successful at any cost. Everyone must take part. The government assumes you are ready for the polls. The election environment is taking shape—this is welcome,” the prime minister said in the meeting.

According to the prime minister's secretariat, Karki stated that the government has already provided the Election Commission and security agencies with the necessary resources. She added that the morale of security personnel has improved as preparations advance.

Present at the meeting were Nepali Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba, CPN-UML chair KP Sharma Oli, and Nepali Communist Party coordinator Pushpa Kamal Dahal. Communications and Information Technology Minister Jagdish Kharel accompanied the prime minister during the talks.
