The selecting process of new commissioners for the Independent Election Commission (IEC) and the Independent Electoral Complaint Commission began on Monday by the selecting committee.
Officials in the Slecting Committee say that of the all applicants they will select 35 qualified candidates for the position of commissioners for the electoral institutions.
“One of the main issues that we have always emphasized on is selecting those candidates that are not affiliated with political parties,” said Muhammad Naeem Ayoub Zada, member of the selecting committee.
According to officials, the list of new commissioners will be submitted to President Ghani in the nearest time.
Meanwhile, a number of former members of election commissions urged for transparency in selection of electoral commissioners.
This comes as that the Selecting Committee prepares the list of 21 nominees for election commission and 15 other candidates for election complaint commission and then it will be sent to President.
