SURKHET, Oct 1: Voting to elect a new leadership of the CPN-UML Karnali Province Committee has started. Voting started from 1PM on Sunday.


Elections were held on the fifth day of the convention, which was scheduled for two days, when there was no agreement on the new leadership of the provincial committee of the party. 


The election committee had fixed the schedule for voting from 2 o'clock on Saturday. After the party center asked them to try to reach a consensus, the leaders held discussions. But as an agreement remained elusive,  the election schedule was fixed from 10AM to 5 PM today.
