Pakistan Election 2024: How to Check Your Polling Station via SMS?

    In a progressive move towards enhancing civic engagement, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has joined forces with the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) to introduce a convenient SMS service for eligible voters. This initiative aims to streamline the process of checking voter registration status, providing the public with easy access to essential information.

    To avail themselves of this user-friendly service, eligible voters can simply type their CNIC (Computerized National Identity Card) number without hyphens or spaces and send it to the designated number 8300. Within moments, an automated response will be received, furnishing details such as the name of the electoral area, block code, and serial number.

    Gone are the days of cumbersome procedures to verify voter registration. By typing your CNIC and sending it to 8300, you not only receive an updated voter record but also get insights into your designated voting station.

    Moreover, the ECP emphasizes inclusivity by allowing every registered voter to cross-verify their particulars. A visit to the District Election Commissioner’s (DEC) office, where the final electoral roll is accessible, offers an alternative method for checking registration details. For the convenience of voters, the addresses and contact information of DEC offices across the four provinces can be easily located on the Election Commission’s official website.

    This innovative approach to voter empowerment exemplifies the commitment of the Election Commission of Pakistan and NADRA to ensuring a transparent and accessible electoral process. By embracing technology, the ECP aims to make information readily available to the public, fostering a culture of active participation and awareness among voters.
