A 10-member committee has been formed to scrutinise the applications of the intending local observer organisations of the next national parliamentary elections, a press release of the EC said.

EC’s law division joint secretary Farukh Ahmed has been appointed as convener of the committee and public relations assistant director Md Ashadul Haque has been appointed as member secretary.


Ashadul Haque said that 331 organisations have applied to the Election Commission for registration as election observer.

 The EC on July 27 invited applications from the intending organisations to register them as election observer.

 Qualified non-government organisations will be given registration for five years as per the Election Observation Guidelines 2025.

The registered organisations will be able to observe all national and local government elections held during this period.
