The Independent Election Commission of Afghanistan (IEC) on Sunday said that the election management body is not worried about the wastage of the stickers or the misuse of them.

IEC officials said that the decision to paste stickers on ID cards had been decided based on the population, the interest of voters and a number of voter registration centers.

Meanwhile, a number of election monitoring groups have said that previous experience shows that more than seven million residents in the country will not participate in the elections.
