EC's decision about FEMA unacceptable

December 18, 2008 00:00:00


IT is unacceptable that the Election Commission has refused to register FEMA, the most experienced organisation to do election monitoring. The entire country knows FEMA since 1996 as the most credible organisation working for free and fair elections.
Many concerned citizens have been involved with this organisation as volunteers and activists and specially during the elections time as observers contributing to create confidence in the process.
We urge Election Commission to register FEMA organisation having a large number of citizen activists around the country and its observers to do the election observation. This will certainly help create public confidence in the election process especially when this election is being held amid uncertainties.
