Election Commission will investigate the slow progress in casting votes during the Rangpur City Corporation Election (RCC), said Election Commissioner Anisur Rahman on Sunday.
“Voting to the Rangpur City Corporation was held slowly and the voting ends at 8 pm. That’s why the EC will investigate and unearth the reason behind the slow progress in voting,” he said while talking to the reporters at Election Bhaban.
“We’ll sit in the next week to find out the reason behind slow progress. At a polling centre, we have seen that 30 people were standing in a queue to cast their votes around 7 pm which was not seen in the past,” he said.
