The Bangladesh Election Commission (EC) has issued letters to secretaries of various ministries and departments, including the Cabinet Secretary and the Chief Adviser’s Principal Secretary, urging them to encourage eligible individuals to register for postal voting ahead of the 13th National Parliamentary Election and referendum scheduled for February 12. The initiative aims to facilitate voting for expatriates, government employees residing outside their constituencies, election officials on duty, and individuals in legal custody. According to the EC’s letter, signed by Additional Secretary K.M. Ali Newaz, eligible voters must register through the Postal Vote BD app by December 25, providing accurate mailing addresses to receive their ballots. Once registered, the EC will send ballots directly to the voters’ addresses. The commission has also requested ministries and departments to motivate their staff to complete registration and exercise their voting rights. As of now, 344,233 expatriates have successfully registered through the Postal Vote BD app. The EC expects this number to rise as awareness efforts continue through official channels and digital platforms.
