Election Commissioner Abul Fazl Mohammad Sanaullah stated that Bangladesh’s electoral system suffered significant damage during the tenure of the previous government and that the Election Commission (EC) is now working to restore its integrity. Speaking at a journalist training workshop in Agargaon, Dhaka, ahead of the 13th National Parliamentary Election, he emphasized that reforming the system cannot be done by the Commission alone and requires collective responsibility from all stakeholders, including journalists. Sanaullah also mentioned the introduction of QR code scanning to prevent fake journalists from accessing polling areas. Additionally, he noted that the number of polling centers cannot be increased and estimated that each voter will take about 3 minutes and 52 seconds to cast their vote. EC Secretary Akhtar Ahmed added that the Commission aims to deliver the best election of the century and that the upcoming election and referendum are complementary processes.
