Staff Correspondent
Voters will be able to know their voter numbers and polling
stations over a week before the polling day of Narayanganj-5 by-election scheduled for June 26 as the Election Commission has decided to upload this information on its website.
"We will introduce a new link on our website. Voters will have to login with the link using their national ID card numbers. Then, they will see their names, voter numbers and polling stations," Motiar Rahman, deputy secretary of the EC secretariat, told The Daily Star.
The decision was made at a commission meeting at its secretariat yesterday, said EC officials.
"In many cases, we see people suffer or face harassment finding out their voter numbers and polling stations. The new system will ease their sufferings," Motiar said.

Voters can know their voter numbers and pollingstations through SMS as well.
