About 45,000 people have re-registered to vote outside their island of permanent residence, the Elections Commission said Tuesday.
It said SMS messages will be sent to confirm the re-registration and notify people about where they should cast their votes.
Re-registration forms were sent to the police for fingerprint verification and if a form is declared invalid, the person who submitted the form will be told, the EC said.
“If the form was submitted personally, then that person will be directly informed. If it was submitted in bulk, the person who submitted the forms in bulk will be informed,” EC member Ahmed Akram told Mihaaru.
