EC updating voter list to remove all doubts: CEC

Staff Reporter:
Chief Election Commissioner AMM Nasir Uddin on Sunday said the Election Commission is working to clear all doubts over the electoral rolls.
“We are doing it (updating the voter lists) to clear the doubts. We are engaging so many people in the field. We are certainly hopeful that all doubts will be cleared, Inshallah,” he said, replying to a question from reporters at an event held in Nirbachan Bhaban here.
In the function, the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) provided some instruments to help the voter list updating program that will begin on Monday throughout the country.
Resident Representative of UNDP Bangladesh Stefan Liller handed over 175 laptops, 200 scanners and 4300 bags to the CEC.
Nasir Uddin said they have planned to complete the voter list updating program within six months and some 65,000 people will work in this huge program.
“We will have frantic efforts to finish this job by this six months,” he said.
The CEC said some 65,000 people will work at different levels so that the commission can com-plete this work quickly and within the specified time as the EC has taken a huge program.
Replying to a question over BNP’s demand for holding the national election in the middle of this year, the CEC said they don’t enter into political statements (debates) and will stay within the laws, rules, and regulations. “We want to present free and fair elections,” he said.
When asked whether the Commission is working within the government’s declared timeline, the CEC confirmed their preparations align with the timeframe outlined by the chief adviser. “We are working with that in mind,” he said.
About UNDP’s support, he said the EC would seek assistance from UNDP throughout the electoral process. “We hope they will continue to support us,” he said.
