A working group of Tajikistan’s Central Election Commission, headed by a Commission member, Ziya Rahman, held a training seminar for potential members of the local election commission today in Tajikabad district.
They are going to be organizing the upcoming parliamentary elections in the winter of next year.

Mr. Dadaev noted: “New amendments to the electoral laws, such as reducing the monetary election pledge, a ban on government officials chairing pre-election meetings, and new rules on filling out the application forms, were studied.”
According to him, such a seminar was also recently held in Jirgatal district.
