The City District Government Rawalpindi (CDGR) has finalised its plan to set up 2,150 polling stations across the city for the upcoming general elections.

According to the plan, each sector will have 20 polling stations with one person in charge of the sector. The in-charge will be either the secretary union councils or a person from the Land Department. The in-charge will have contact numbers of higher officials so that he could inform them in case of emergency.

Additional District Controller General Saif Anwar Jappa also confirmed the finalisation of the plan. He said the assistant commissioners of all the seven tehsils would inform on the need of transportation for the day of election. He said the plan will be then sent to the Punjab government in the final phase.

According to reports, around 20,000 people and heavy consignments related to the polling will be transported on the day of election. The secretary transport will make necessary arrangements in this regard.
