The efforts of election commission to know ones vote (area and block code ) is excellent. It should be given more publicity.

A very nice and efficient service provided by the Ecp. The only thing we are eagerly waiting is a
neat, clean and transparent election which can only be ensured if the Ecp gets so powerful that it
can`t be influenced by the people like wahida shah.

my suggestion is that if sender sent the msg to 8300 and got information wrong so at the same time election commission should be provide service to complain lock to another complain registered number. And Election commission should be resolve the matter in due course of time. And this service must be provided on free of cost of every individual votor.

Yes I checked it but After checking my voting area It’s very surprised for me that the new voting area has been included,
Electoral Area: محلہ قربان غلی جتو‏ئی، لاڑکانہ, whereas such name never existed there before so it’s humbly requested to ECP to correct it to avoid confusion among voters!

AOA. I hope soon there would be a step forward to eradicate the ‘cheating’, as a proper mechanism for overseas Pakistanis to vote in Pakistani Elections is yet to be decided. Being the nation of IT heads, i would suggest ECP to automate the system for overseas Pakistanis at the embassies over there. If they can venture with NADRA, they can also make ease for Pakistanis abroad. It’s simply not hard. Rather, it would be much easier. I would quote Mr. Ali’s comment on Feb 14, 2012 – 4:41PM upon the NEWS title ‘ECP grants overseas Pakistanis right to vote’ @ The Express Tribune
(Published: February 14, 2012)

“All you need are THREE things, a barcode reader, a biometrics reader, and a reliable internet connection.
Once the voter will enter any voting booth around the world he/she will swipe his/her ID card which will be verified against national database
Then the voter will cast a vote and the system will ask for his or her thumb impression verification, once verified the vote will be casted while blocking that ID number for any further votes.
If its all centralized,
One voter will be able to cast one vote only
No threat that someone will enter the voting booth and will take the boxes
And results will be ready within few hours.”

I hope it becomes the very help for ECP in assuring quality nationally and internationally

Best Luck EC and Best Luck Pakistan
