As the upcoming House of Representatives elections on Falgun 21 are approaching, Nepalis in the US have also shown interest.
In a survey conducted among Nepalis in the US before the start of the silent period, they showed more interest in the leadership that will come after the elections, constitutional amendment, the process of running the government, the problems of NRNs, the system of voting from abroad, and the interesting competition between famous competitors. In the survey conducted by Nepa IT, which has been operating an IT company in the US for two decades, from February 24 to March 2, 6,133 people from 39 states in the US voted.
Nepa IT conducted the survey based on five questions based on election-related issues, manifestos made public by parties, and famous competitors in the election competition, said Chief Executive Engineer Vijayraj Bhattarai. ‘We have tried to cover all sectors by creating voting software to involve as many Nepalis as possible in this survey,’ he told Kantipur. ‘This survey seeks to cover the interests of Nepalis living abroad to the maximum extent.’
The results of the survey by Nepa IT were made public on Monday morning local time. According to the results released, 43.90 percent of the 6,133 voters who participated in the survey expressed their interest in the election and voted for a directly elected prime minister. In the manifestos of the parties published in connection with the Falgun 21 elections, many parties have talked about amending the constitution. When asked what kind of political system would be appropriate for Nepal to move towards development in the upcoming amendment, 43.90 percent voted for a directly elected prime minister. On the same question, 20.60 percent voted for the current parliamentary system, 18.16 percent for a parliamentary system with a king, and 17.34 percent for a directly elected executive president, informed Bhattarai, the executive chief of Nepa.
Similarly, when asked why the Nepali government has not implemented the provision for voting for Nepalis living abroad even after many years since the Supreme Court directed it, 45.92 percent voted saying that Nepalis living abroad could influence the outcome. The survey results show that 25.54 percent said it was not a priority for all governments, 14.40 percent said it should not be implemented, and 14.13 percent said it was due to the lack of technical knowledge among those leading the government. When asked who could be to blame for this, 40.60 percent said it was the fault of the CPN-UML, 28.88 percent said it was not due to political parties, and 7.36 percent said it was the fault of the Nepali Congress and the Nepali Communist Party.
Similarly, the survey also estimated the expected results of the interesting election contests to be held in Jhapa constituency number 5, Sarlahi 4, Chitwan 2, Sunsari 1, Kathmandu 3, Saptari 2, Gulmi 1, Jhapa 3, Dhanusha 3, Gorkha 1, Tanahun 1, Dang 2, Rukum East 1, Kailali 4 and Chitwan 3.
