Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) A M M Nasir Uddin reaffirmed the Election Commission’s commitment to holding a peaceful, credible, and participatory election in Bangladesh. Speaking at a briefing for international election observers and journalists at Hotel Intercontinental on Wednesday, he said transparency would be ensured in both the voting and counting processes. He encouraged all voters, regardless of gender or age, to participate freely.
Nasir Uddin explained that ballot papers are issued only after proper voter identification and that voting takes place in secret booths following legal procedures. Any electoral disputes will be resolved strictly under existing laws and the constitution. He noted that around 330 international observers and over 160 foreign journalists are monitoring the election independently. The CEC highlighted that transparency has been a core principle since the commission’s inception.
He added that about 4.5 million new voters, including 2.7 million women, have been added to the updated voter list, bringing the total to 127 million. For the first time, expatriate Bangladeshis can vote via an IT-supported postal system, with around 800,000 registered overseas voters. Voting will take place in a single day from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with results announced at polling centers before official consolidation.
