Smart Election Management App introduced by the Election Commission (EC) provides all kinds of information related to polls.

This app enables citizens to access comprehensive election information, including the location of his polling center, voter number and details about all seats in every division of the country.

A voter can find the Google location of the designated polling center after entering NID number on the app.  

The EC will announce the centre-wise voter turnout rate of the 12th National Parliamentary Election through the app developed by the Election Commission (EC) every two hours, said EC Secretary Md Jahangir Alam.

They will need to put their date of birth and NID number for verification after downloading the app on mobile devices.

The EC Secretary in a press conference on Monday said various voting information of the 12th parliamentary elections will be available through the ‘Smart Election Management BD’ app developed by the EC.

Pointing out the information to update the app, he said, “Information about the polling centre is available now. A voter can know his polling centre and where is the location of the polling center.”

He said even though central results are available in the app, 20 percent of areas like hilly areas are out of network for these centralized results will not be available.

“If the results are not sent due to some reason, there may be a discrepancy in the percentage of votes. But we will let you know if possible. We will use BGB, police wireless network there,” he said.

By using this app, citizens can get information about voter numbers, polling station names, candidates, party and seat-wise information, as well as various types of information including laws, voter turnout and results.

In this, a voter can easily know the necessary information before going to the center to vote.

As in previous years, you will not have to get confused about where to go to which center to vote, and also you will not get into the irony of going to the polling station and looking for the number.

Mentionable, the country will go to the polls to contest 299 parliamentary seats tomorrow.

This year 28 parties, including the ruling Awami League and the Jatiya Party, are taking part in the polls.

A total of 1,539 candidates are running under their party banners while 436 are independent candidates.
