In the training session, senior journalist Ghulam Abbas Bhanbharu from Khairpur expressed his opinion and said that at this time the country needs clean and transparent elections. The policy of providing should also be clear. He said that for the conduct of clean and transparent elections, it is necessary that the Election Commission, political parties, appoint only the voters of their wards who live in the area as polling agents and journalists in any Leaned towards a party or organization? It should not be done, our work is like a mirror.
