The commission also acknowledged an error in the vote tally for the Gandaki Province geographical category. Following a review, it found that Bastola should have been declared elected but Sharma was mistakenly announced the winner due to the counting error.


The revised results were issued after Bastola filed a complaint with the election commission, claiming irregularities in the counting process and alleging that a candidate who had secured fewer votes had been declared elected.
