Bangladesh's Election Commission will provide voting arrangements for nearly 1 million government employees assigned to election duties, Chief Election Commissioner AMM Nasir Uddin said on Monday. The commission identified more than 2.1 million deceased individuals on voter rolls through a recent update, and many had been listed as active voters. Nasir Uddin emphasized the need for media cooperation to ensure fair conditions for the 13th National Parliamentary Election scheduled for February.
The commission plans voting facilities for expatriates, and public servants working on election day will cast ballots under the special system. Nasir Uddin urged the electronic media to combat disinformation resulting from the misuse of artificial intelligence, and he pledged to conduct transparent elections. The Election Commission met with television journalists on Monday morning, and sessions with representatives from print and online media followed in the afternoon. The commission will consult women leaders, election experts, freedom fighters, and political parties in the coming days before implementing recommendations from stakeholders.
