ISLAMABAD   -  President Dr Arif Alvi on Thursday called for early initiating the registration of Overseas Pakistanis in order to enable them to participate in the polling process through i-voting in the general election 2023. The President made these remarks while chairing a meeting of sub-committee on Emerging Technologies in I-voting held here at Aiwan-e-Sadr. Dr. Alvi said that the Pakistani community, living abroad, was playing instrumental role in economic development of the country by sending record remittances but they had not yet been facilitated to cast their vote in line with the orders of the Supreme Court of Pakistan (SCP).  The President noted that the process of electoral reforms was the basic mandate and fundamental responsibility of the ECP and the federal government should only provide guidance and technical support to enhance their capacity as and when requested.
