In an all-party discussion held at Singha Durbar with Prime Minister Sushila Karki, citizen representatives expressed their doubts about holding the elections on time and made suggestions to the government.

Former Chief Election Commissioner Surya Prasad Shrestha said that if there is external interference in the government and if the government interferes in the Election Commission, the country will not get out of the situation in time. He said that the government's work should focus on political mobilization, coordination, getting everyone involved and providing relief from the atmosphere of fear.

Journalist and writer Kanakmani Dixit said that it is not appropriate to change the method and technology after the election has been announced according to international norms. He argued that if the election is not held on 21 Falgun, the country will be heading towards uncertainty and argued that the upcoming Falgun 21 should be viewed with a positive perspective. Stating that there is some tampering in the constitution and that the Falgun 21 election is necessary to eliminate it, he said that it is necessary to hold the election on time even if it is not possible.

Former MP and constitutional expert Radheshyam Adhikari said that laws should not be changed after the election process has started, saying that if it is tampered with, it will not reach the right place. He said that the issue of voting for Nepalis living abroad is sensitive and suggested that the election process should proceed without changing the rules of the game as it has already begun. Adhikari said that it is not time to amend the law and bring an ordinance and argued that it is not possible to hold elections by setting seat limits for the top leadership, so the seat limits of leaders should be removed. Other citizen representatives present at the program also suggested that the four million people living abroad should not be deprived of voting.

Prime Minister Sushila Karki had called for a discussion with political parties and citizen representatives regarding the preparations for the House of Representatives elections. Along with Prime Minister Karki, ministers of the interim government, grassroots leaders of major political parties and officials of the Election Commission also participated in the discussion.
