Stressing the need for rectifying flaws in the RTS, the ECP decided to overcome the shortcomings that emerged after the 2018 general elections with the collaboration of National Database and Registration Authority.
Moreover, the commission also called for developing “error free” electronic voting machines (EVMs) and directed the technical committee to complete its review.
“We are in the favour of ‘error free’ technology,” sources quoted the ECP as saying.
Officials said that the government has not yet submitted the items requested for EVMs.
