In a groundbreaking initiative directed by the Election Commission, a new chapter is set to unfold in the electoral landscape of Sindh, especially in bustling Karachi. The Election Commission has issued a series of instructions aimed at establishing polling stations within the premises of private schools across the province.
Rafia Javaid, the Additional Director of Private Schools in Sindh, has taken the lead in conveying these crucial instructions to administrative authorities of private schools. To facilitate this initiative, schools have been requested to remain open on Saturdays and Sundays, highlighting the collaborative approach to ensure the success of this unique venture.
Emphasizing the need for thorough preparation, Rafia Javaid has urged all private schools to complete necessary arrangements promptly. The Election Commission has assigned dedicated teams to visit these schools, conducting inspections to ensure compliance with mandated standards.
To meet the requirements set by the Election Commission, all private schools are obligated to have electricity, clean drinking water facilities, well-maintained washrooms, and overall proper cleanliness. This move not only transforms private schools into active participants in the electoral process but also underscores the Election Commission’s commitment to conducting free and fair elections.
