Interim office bearers of the Nagaland Press Association (NPA) constituted a three-member election commission on November 15 with the responsibility of conducting free and fair elections of the association.
Accordingly the election commission has decided to conduct elections for the executive committee on December 18 for the offices of president, vice-president, general secretary, joint secretary and finance secretary.
According to a release by NPA election commission, to facilitate an open, free and fair election process the commission has printed a brochure containing the “rules and procedures for the election” as well as the “nomination petition.”
The brochure provides the basic information pertaining to eligibility of voters, candidates and the due process to be followed during the elections, stated the commission.
Interested NPA members have been requested to collect the brochure from the office of The Morung Express, House No 4, Duncan Bosti. The process of nomination began after the general body meeting on November 27 and will continue to remain open until 5p.m. on December 10.
Meanwhile, the election commission has urged all members of the NPA to participate in this process and to elect their executive committee, so that they can with greater responsibility and determination work towards the realization of the aims and objectives of the NPA.
