According to the schedule, the commission will start the first phase of the task of updating the electoral roll on June 15 Ln 153 upazilas of six divisions. The enumerators will continue making door-to-door visits till June 24 to collect necessary information.
The second phase of the task will begin on July 15 in another 161 upazilas and 17 unions of Dhaka circle, the third phase on August 15 in 167 upazilas and the last phase on September 15 in six city corporations.
The enumerators will collect particulars of the people, who on January 1, 2009 turned 18, the eligible age for getting included in tne electoral roll.
The supervisors will begin examining the authenticity of Ute prospective voters' particulars from the next day the enumerators start collecting information.
On completion of scrutiny, the voters will have to visit nearby registration centres within a deadline for having their photographs and fingerprints taken for revision of the electoral roll.
If anyone misses the deadline, he or she will have to go to upazila headquarters.
The eligible people, who were not registered on the voter list before the last parliamentary election, will have to produce valid reasons for not being included in the roll.
"For example, if an eligible individual, who could not get registered as voters, says he was abroad at that time, he will have to show passport in defence of his argument," Shahadat Hossain said.
He said the EC initiated the propedure to. prevent duplica? tion of voters' names.
On completion of registering names on the electoral roll, the voters will be provided with national identity cards later.
Referring to transfer of a voter's name from one electoral area to another, the project director said the process would begin simultaneously with the task of updating the list.
"But one will have to file an application with upazila election officers showing valid grounds for transferring nis or her name from one place to another," he said.
Commenting on correction of mistakes on national identity cards, the project director said they would begin the task across the country.
He said if anybody loses his or her national identity card, the person would have to file a general diary with the police station and apply to the district election office to get a new one.
The EC has made necessary preparations to complete the task of updating the voter list with photographs for the first time since it prepared the roll before the ninth parliamentary election.
District election officers will act as registration officers while upazila and thana election officers will assist them as assistant registration officers.
The EC has formed a number of committees at central, division, district and upazila levels to coordinate and supervise the tasks.
Besides, the commission will launch campaign to create public awareness for ensuring people's participation.
