The Bangladesh Election Commission (EC) has implemented a strict digital security system for announcing results of the upcoming parliamentary election. Officials said final results will be declared only after a three-stage verification process. The EC has set up large digital monitoring screens, 87 media booths, and a closed network without internet access at its headquarters. Data will be transmitted through a secure VPN-based Election Management System (EMS) and its Result Management System (RMS) module, ensuring no direct online connection.
According to EC officials, presiding officers will send scanned copies of results to assistant returning officers, who will verify and forward them to returning officers. A central three-member team led by Additional Secretary K.M. Ali Newaz will oversee the final announcement. The EC claims the system is technically secure and immune to hacking due to its closed-loop design.
However, election analysts and civil society representatives have questioned the transparency and auditability of the internal system. Dr. Badiul Alam Majumdar of Shushashoner Jonno Nagorik (SUJAN) criticized the EC’s decision to collect results through returning officers instead of directly from polling centers, calling it a move that could undermine public trust.
