The final number of polling stations in 300 parliamentary constituencies across the country in the 13th National Parliament elections is 42,761. Election Commission Senior Secretary Akhtar Ahmed gave this information.
\nHe gave this information to reporters in front of his office at Nirban Bhaban in Agargaon in the capital on Monday (October 27).
\nThe secretary said, “We have prepared the final list of polling stations today. The number of polling stations in 300 parliamentary constituencies in 64 districts is 42,761. In terms of rooms, 115,137 rooms have been allocated for men and 129,602 rooms for women. That is, the total number of rooms is 244,649.”
\nAkhtar Ahmed also said that initially the number of temporary polling stations is 14, where there will be about 12,000 polling stations. An average of 3,000 voters will be in a polling station. This has been taken as the ‘catchment area’. This number will be adjusted later if necessary.
\nAccording to the EC draft, the number of draft polling stations was 42,618, which was 42,148 in the 12th parliamentary elections. Also, in the upcoming elections, there will be a total of 244,046 polling stations in these polling stations, which was 2,61,564 in the last elections. That is, although the number of polling stations has increased in the contested parliamentary elections, the number of polling stations has decreased.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
