The Election Code of Conduct 2025 (Article 24) allows returning officers to arrange public meetings for candidates to present their manifestos. But during the pre-election consultation between the Election Commission and political parties, some parties showed little interest in adopting or participating in such voter-candidate face-to-face events faclitated bu the Election Commision. It is also mentioned that the feasibility of implementing this proposal is constrained by limited manpower and time of the Election Commission.
