Nepali artists are voting in the election

The current election is considered to be one of the most important step towards the future of Nepal as a country. For that reason, most of the artists of the Nepali film industry have been actively participating in the election awareness. Most of them have joined one of the many political parties and those who haven’t joined any party are also actively participating in the awareness of people about their voting rights.

Nepali superstar Rajesh Hamal is going to vote in the constituency no. 6 in Kathamndu. He is not affiliated to any party and he is also asking everybody to vote in the election.

The election is going through a very tough time because of the problems created by the Vaiday faction of CPN (Maoist). Although the situation is very adverse, the artists have told that they will be practicing their rights and vote in the election.

On the election day, the government is not allowing any vehicles to run on roads. No voters are allowed to take their cell phones or camera to the polling stations. The voters have lined up before the voting stations opened and all the streets are empty in Kathmandu.
