I am particularly thankful to the Nepal Advisory Group who formulated the current CAN constitution, and the Independent Panel who have overseen the election process at district, provincial and central levels,&quot; Khwaja was quoted as saying by the ICC.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>He also hoped that the newly elected Central Working Committee in place, Nepal will replicate this progress off-the-field too.<\/p>\r\n",
