Election Commission
Appeal to the Public, Mangsir 27, 2060
Re: Elections
This is to inform the public about the upcoming elections being held on Magh 23, 24 and 25, 2060. Long time after the declaration of cease-fire between the government and Communist Part of Nepal (Maoists), the three forcesthat includes the political partieshave come to an agreement that elections be held to decide the political future of the country. Election Commission has finished its homework and announces here the contestants, their election symbols, and some of the nationalist slogans they will be using during campaigns. To prevent mishaps, the election commission has decided to limit the slogans to the ones mentioned below; the EC reserves the right to expel any contestant from the election if any misbehavior is noticed (and of course, if no gun is noticed!).
Contestant 1: Monarchy
--If win, an absolute monarchy shall be established in the country and the monarch shall govern the country at his discretion.
Election Symbol: Yugal Jodi of Sri 5 Gyanendra and Minister Pun
Election Slogans:
1) Shah ra Raana maathi ko daman antya garou
2) Raaja Bisnu kaa awataar hun
3) Paras sarkaar kaa kabitaa padhau

4) June 1 ko ghatnaa haamle garyaa hoina
Raastra ko baaremaa sochne haamro kaam hoina
Contestant 2: Political Parties
--If win, a constitutional monarchy with British-type parliamentary system shall be established. The title of Sri 5 would be confined to the King, Queen and the Crown Prince.

Election Symbol: Futeko Gilaash (symbolizing the juttingcoming together; jhuttingtelling lies; futtingspliting; kuttingfighting in the parliament; and hootingshouting in the parliament nature of the parliamentarians)
