CZOP Engages Election Commission and NHRC on Child Protection

February 20, 2026. CZOP submitted a memorandum to the Election Commission and the National Human Rights Commission, urging action against the use of children in election campaigns, rallies, and public gatherings.

A team led by General Secretary Raju Ghimire met with Election Commission Legal Officer Mohan Regmi and NHRC Secretary Murari Prasad Kharel.

Following this advocacy, both institutions issued communications to political parties reinforcing compliance with the election code and prohibiting child involvement. This reflects CZOP’s effective advocacy at the national level.
