Many lawmakers have arrived at the CA in their ethnic cultural attires and a large number people have started thronging outside the CA building carrying the national flag.
The ex-lawmakers from previous Constitution Assembly that was dissolved in 2012 have also been invited to observe the historic occasion of constitution promulgation.
Meanwhile, the Naya Baneshwor area wears a different look today. Only few vehicles are plying on the Baneshwor road section, heavy presence of security personnel in riot-gear can be seen everywhere and a huge mass of people in anticipation of the new constitution can be seen around the Baneshwor area.
The Constitution Assembly has been decorated with flowers and garlands to mark the special day.
