Thanks to the consultations with the Election Commission, Nepal and the faith reposed by UNDP in Nepal Press Institute, the unique and mammoth task of preparing the Media Monitoring pertaining to the 2013 Constituent Assembly elections has been possible. The partnership in cooperation has resulted in this report which is highly and uniquely comprehensive in both its size and breadth. The report is a statement on the performance of the Nepal media in the course of the November 2013 elections in which more than 12 million voters (or, 79 percent of the eligible voters) exercised their rights in fulfilling their duties as citizens. A total of 120 political parties and Independents fielded 6,126 candidates in the first-past-the-post segment whereas 122 parties had enclosed nearly 11,000 candidates in the PR list of the two-pronged electoral system. As monitoring elicits feedback and public discussion, it was indeed an essential opportunity for media professionals themselves to consult the checklist as to how they performed and, more importantly, how they could do even better the next time. The effort offers the ECN, UNDP and other international agencies like the Election Support Programme, as well as NPI a reference point in their quest for making future media monitoring exercises qualitatively and quantitatively more comprehensive.
