NEW DELHI: As parliamentary polls began in Nepal on March 5, voters shared their expectations from the upcoming government, emphasising the need for stronger security and effective governance in the country. Many voters said that ensuring safety and stability should be the first priority of the new government, followed by policies aimed at improving the welfare of citizens.
Several voters highlighted the importance of responsible leadership and inclusive policies for the development of the nation. Sanjiya Shrestha, a voter from Sinamangal, said she had already cast her vote and was among the first to participate in the polling process.
“I’m a permanent resident of Sinamangal. I just completed the voting process and I was the first voter to cast my vote. The reason behind voting is very simple — fulfilling my duties and responsibilities as a citizen of Nepal,” she said.
Shrestha added that the future of Nepal in the next five years will depend not only on the election results but also on how responsibly citizens fulfil their civic duties. She stressed that the government should focus on making inclusive policies, particularly for physically challenged individuals.
“The country should focus on making policies that benefit physically challenged individuals like me. Such policies will contribute to the country’s development and also improve the living conditions of the people,” she said.
