The Election Commission has started publishing municipal election results in official gazettes as it already sent polls results of 11 districts to the press.
“We sent the results of 11 districts to the press on Wednesday and will send the remaining ones soon,” said an official at the Election Commission Secretariat preferring anonymity.

In case of election anomaly, the aggrieved person is allowed to file complaint with the election tribunal, led by a joint district judge, within 30 days after the election results are published in gazettes.
