The former union government and UEC released the following instructions on voter list that were not in compliance with electoral laws and rules-

(a)	Giving reasons for the errors from Voter List Display, the former Union Government Office formed Voter List Support Groups led by former Chief Minister of respective State/Region and included Immigration and Human Resources Minister, former UEC, General Administration Department, Immigration department on 4.8.2020. By misusing the authority of that group, there were forcibly inclusion of voters by NLD party campaign teams until the Election Day and the local election sub commissions could not be able to verify and identify these voters which made the voter list more duplicative. [1]
(b)	Although it is stated in Article (a) “citizen, associate citizen, naturalized citizen who has completed the age of 18 years on the day of commencement of election and who does not contravene the provisions of this Law, and according to Article (b) of Section 6, it is stated “person whose name has been included in the voting roll of the respective constituency” according to Section 6 of Chapter IV Eligible Voters in respective Hluttaw Election Law, the former UEC issued the instruction on 19.8.2020 allowing those, who can show either driving license, identity card for civil servant, student ID, ID card of Red Cross Association, ID card of Reservist Firefighters, ID card of Militia Group, ID card of Social Welfare organisations which can be identified as having their names included in the voter list, to cast votes in order to maintain the voting rights of voters who do not have complete information in voter list such as Citizenship Scrutiny Card numbers. Because of this instruction, there were voting by people at the polling stations with voter slips only in which their Citizenship Scrutiny Card numbers couldn’t be verified, voting by people who do not have any Citizenship Scrutiny Cards, voting by people who had the same Citizenship Scrutiny Card number but were included in the voter list twice or more than three times. These are all violations of the provisions of Section 59 of the respective Hluttaw Election Laws. [2]
(c)	According to COVID-19 outbreak conditions, since the former UEC gave instructions for the production of the voter slips on 6.10.2020 and planned to distribute the slips by the first week of November on 9.10.2020, the unlawful actions were found such as the voter slips were bloated and given to unauthorized persons, and voting by these people who brought the slips but couldn’t be verified was allowed at the polling stations. It was found that the fake voter slips were produced and distributed, for example- Ko Soe, son of former Amyotha Hluttaw Speaker Mann Win Khaing Than supervised the distribution of fake voter slips at the polling station in No.3 ward in Myawaddy township in Kayin State.
