The Election Commission (EC) has resumed the National Identity Card (NID) correction services from Sunday.
“Our voter list has been completed. We have returned to normal operations. Applications for corrections under all categories can now be submitted,” said Director General of the NID Wing (Additional Secretary) ASM Humayun Kabir.
Referring to NID correction as a year-round ongoing process, he said, “We had kept it suspended, but now it has been reopened. The commission has withdrawn its directive to suspend the NID correction services.”
“We had concerns regarding Overseas Citizen Voter/Voting (OCV) and In-Country Postal Voter/Voting (ICPV) process. That is why the NID correction service remained suspended during that period. Now the OCV and ICPV processes have been completed. Our election candidacy process is complete, and the voter list is now finalised. We must now return to our regular work,” Kabir added.
