The Election Commission has been closely monitoring the special general convention of the Nepali Congress since it began.
The officials of the commission and the legal department are studying the statutes, acts, rules and past precedents of the Congress.
The commission has started an internal study based on the assumption that this dispute will come to the Election Commission after the election process. However, the Election Commission has not made any opinion public on this matter.
The special general convention party has also been preparing by collecting signatures and citizenship certificates in three files of the general convention representatives at the general convention venue, keeping in mind the issue of going to the Election Commission.
Acting Chief Election Commissioner Ram Prasad Bhandari has responded that it is not necessary for the commission to enter into a dispute that is going on outside a party. He said that the commission should not become a referee to decide who is fighting on the street.
Such disputes have reached the Election Commission from time to time. The NCP dispute, the dispute between Rishi Kattel's Communist Party and the dispute between Resham Chaudhary's Civil Liberation Party had reached the commission. The precedent of resolving these disputes will be useful for the commission if there is a dispute in the Congress.
The dispute of the then NCP formed under the leadership of KP Sharma Oli and Pushpa Kamal Dahal had reached the Election Commission. The Commission was criticized for not taking a decision on this dispute in time. This dispute had also reached the court.
Similarly, the Election Commission had recognized the conference held by the other party in the Nepal Communist Party led by Rishi Ram Kattel with a majority. Party Vice-Chairman Lok Narayan Subedi had held the party's national conference in Janakpur on 11-12 Chaitra 2078.
The conference had passed the statute amendment, political report and also elected a 44-member central committee. The Commission was of the opinion that the national conference was legal.
Similarly, after being released from prison, Resham Chaudhary had become the president of the Civil Liberation Party after holding the party's general convention in Tikapur, Kailali on 12 December 2001. The Commission did not recognize that general convention after investigating the complaint filed against him.
