Besides, by-polls are being held in two wards and general elections in the remaining two wards of these four municipalities.

Meanwhile, the Election Commission has taken a policy decision not to hold the first phase of Union Parishad (UP) elections, which was scheduled to be held on 11 April, due to the rise of Covid-19 cases in the country. 

However, the matter will be finalised on Thursday.
