Some 48300 enumerators will prepare the list of possible voters during the triple-phase countrywide electoral rolls update, scheduled to kick off May 15, reports UNB.
The Election Commission (EC) will also appoint 9,660 supervisors, one for five enumerators each, EC Secretariat sources said.
The commission estimates about 4.6 million fresh voters, a five per cent growth, will come out during the voter list update as the commission did not update the electoral rolls in 2013.
Currently there are 91,950,641 voters in the country.
The EC will install some 54,000 voter registration centres in 4583 union parishads, 313 municipalities, 12 cantonment boards and 439 wards of 11 city corporations across the country.
A total of 150 voter registration teams will work in the field. Each team is comprised of a team leader, four data-entry operators, two proof-readers and a data-entry helper.
