A high-level delegation led by Election Commissioner of Nepal Dr. Rajeev Subba held a formal bilateral meeting with the Bangladesh Election Commission at Nirbachan Bhaban in Agargaon, Dhaka on Wednesday (October 7, 2026) to review the technical framework and operational realities of Bangladesh's postal voting apparatus. Facing provincial elections in approximately 18 months, Nepal is conducting advance research to register and enable voting for an estimated 20 to 30 lakh eligible expatriate citizens spread across the Gulf region, Europe, and the United States. Dr. Subba praised Bangladesh's pioneer initiative as an exemplary model for Global South democracies, noting that studying Bangladesh's logistical challenges, voter verification protocols, cyber security frameworks, and postal delivery mechanisms will help Nepal craft a robust, tailor-made voting architecture.
