On Wednesday evening, the Election Commission sent a letter requesting three days to arrange clusters from the closed list and send the names to the seats won by the party.
According to the letter from the EC, the 110 names on the proportional list should be separated into five clusters and sent to the EC along with the party’s decision. On that basis, the Commission will declare that proportional MPs have been elected. UML must send 19 women from the closed list out of a total of 34 people who will be chosen proportionally.
