New Delhi: Nepal's Election Commission has declared that the country is not yet ready for polls.
Political parties and Maoists had agreed to hold elections in June, but the Commission now says it needs at least 110 days to prepare for polls.
The Commission says security in the south of the country is still a concern, and necessary laws aren't in place yet.
The meeting of the top leaders of the eight political parties, including Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala and Maoist Chief Prachanda, scheduled to take place on Sunday at the Prime Minister's residence will decide the new election date.
