Staff Reporter

BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia will be enrolled as voter today or tomorrow, said a close aide of the party high up yesterday.

Earlier officials from the Election Commission (EC) went to Begum Zia in the prison and she had refused to be a voter.

The EC said the last date for enlisting as voter has long expired.

But aspiring candidates in the upcoming parliamentary election can be enrolled before the date of filing nomination papers under a special arrangement.
