Nov 26, 2017-The Ministry of Home Affairs has said the federal parliamentary and provincial assembly elections held in 32 districts on Sunday remained peaceful.

The ministry said that no incidents of fatal attacks against the voters and candidates were reported and the voting was not hampered anywhere.
Spokesman at the ministry, Narayan Prasad Sharma Duwadi attributed the peaceful conduction of elections to the effective and good security provisions adopted by the ministry.
