What's the use of new voter list?

Sometimes an event can change the course of life. Writing letters in newspapers was my passion and I used to consider it a sacred duty to point out the many problems that are besieging our country. But after January 5, it has become meaningless. Nothing matters anymore as a government was formed ignoring people's basic voting right.

Now we have learned that the Election Commission is preparing to update the voter list and include new voters. It will cost a huge amount of taxpayers' money, but it will not bring any fruitful results because people will not go to the polling booths unless the caretaker government system is reinstated.
