Kathmandu, October 20
Bardi KC being elected the president of the Non-Resident Nepali Association (NRNA) has been mired in controversy.
KC who received 1,378 votes, beat competitors RK Sharma and Mahesh Shrestha who received 1,281 and 1,225 votes respectively.
Sharma and Shrestha, suspecting foul play have accused KC of hacking the online voting system to win the election.
The two raised concerns about the voting results when it was discovered that Keshav Paudel received zero votes from Kathmandu, despite over 800 people having cast their votes in that region.
There has been widespread frustration expressed over the announced outcome, with many questioning how it is possible for candidates not to have voted themselves.
Sharma and Shrestha have said they will not accept the result.
