As the timeline for Afghanistan’s scheduled parliamentary and district council elections draws near, the Independent Election Commission (IEC) said all necessary arrangements have been made to start the voter registration process. 
 
The process of preparing the voters list is on track, which will enable the IEC to include data of 14 million voters on the new list, said Wasima Badghisi, operational deputy chief of the IEC. 
 
She said the old voting cards will no longer be valid and that parliamentary and district council elections will be held on the basis of the new list.  
 
But the IEC has confirmed that the parliamentary and district council elections could be further delayed.  The date set for them last year was July 7 this year.
