The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) is mulling a proposal on verifying thumb prints on ballot papers in the constituencies where rigging has been alleged.

According to news reports, the ECP has summoned the NADRA chairman to consult him on the matter and finalise a strategy.

Sources in the ECP said the commission had received several applications for verification of thumb prints, which prompted the electoral body to take up the proposal for consideration.
