The Election Commission (EC) has expedited the voter education program to raise voter awareness and reduce the number of invalid ballots ahead of the March 5 elections to the House of Representatives (HoR). 

The EC has created and circulated content through digital platforms, according to the EC. 

The EC has already approved the voter education related programs on February 2 for this purpose. 

The EC shared that volunteers would be mobilized to effectively disseminate messages on voter education.

A volunteer would be deputed at the ward level from the concerned Office of the Returning Officer. 

It is shared that the volunteers are going to be deputed in all 6743 wards of the country.

Child development facilitators, women health volunteers and community service centre operators would be appointed for voter education.

The EC has already signed the agreement with the state-owned media houses and regulatory body for the production of voter education content and effective mobilization.
