UNB, Dhaka :
The Election Commission has enlisted some 64,000 election officials, including presiding officers, assistant presiding officers and polling officers, for conducting the December-30 municipal polls.
The Commission will start training up the election officials after publishing the final list soon.
“The training for trainers has already started. And the training for the election officials will begin soon,” EC Secretary Sirazul Islam told UNB on Friday.
According to the EC Secretariat, the Commission enlisted additional five percent of the number of officials required for the election so that it can remove names of biased or controversial ones of them in case of receiving complaints.
