Those who live outside the district where they have a permanent address can register by reaching the election office in the district where they live. The commission has made arrangements to register names on the voters’ roll from all 77 district election offices, all 77 district administration offices, and 73 area administration offices. ‘Those who live outside their permanent address can register at the district election office where they live,’ said Aryal, the commission’s information officer.
