CEO Abdullah Abdullah said on Monday at the Council of Ministers meeting that there was concern over the closure of electoral commission offices in a number of provinces.
 
Abdullah said that closing of electoral offices will not help with transparency in the elections.
 
“At the moment we are all trying to improve the election process and besides all other existing problems the closure of electoral offices in the provinces under any name is not helping with election transparency,” said CEO Abdullah Abdullah.
 
He also said that the Election Commission is responsible for the continuation of discussions with parties and civil society organizations to ensure transparency.
