The Independent Election Commission on Tuesday announced that as opposed to its earlier decision which stated that votes that were cast without voter details being entered into biometric devices will not be counted, the commission has now announced that these votes will indeed be included and counted.
This decision comes after it was pointed out that there were many polling centres where there were technical glitches in biometric devices faced by the staff and voters on polling day, which not only caused delay but also rendered some people to not be able to register their details in the device.
