The expatriate voter registration app ‘Postal Vote BD’ will be launched this (Tuesday) evening, said Election Commissioner Brigadier General (Retd.) Abul Fazal Md. Sanaullah yesterday.
He said this during the concluding remarks of the third day of the EC’s dialogue with registered political parties on the occasion of the 13th National Parliament Election at the conference room of the Nirbachan Bhaban in city’s Agargaon.
Sanaullah said, “we will launch the voting app for expatriate Bangladeshis. We are launching this voting app tomorrow in coordination with global time for the convenience of expatriates.”
He said, “If we have 1.40 crore expatriate Bangladeshis, it will be seven to eight percent of our population. We expect our expatriate voter turnout to be higher than that of other countries.”
He requested political parties to encourage expatriate voters to register.
