All applications for postal voting must be submitted to the respective District Election Offices by midnight on August 5, the Election Commission announced.
In a statement, the Election Commission clarified that applications for postal votes must be handed directly to the District Returning Officers by August 5. Applications submitted after this deadline will be rejected without review.
To assist postal voters, the Commission has mandated that the 2024 voters’ lists be prominently displayed at relevant government offices. These lists are accessible for public viewing at all District Secretariats, Divisional Secretariats and GN Offices during regular office hours starting from July 26, 2024.
The Commission emphasized that applications will only be accepted if they are physically received by the deadline; simply posting them on that date will not suffice.
