Posted on: 23/Nov/2013 12:44:54 PM
Now people can get detailed information regarding the candidates in the upcoming elections. Think tank Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR) and Facebook have joined hands and will provide information about candidates in the upcoming polls through phones using Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD) technology.
The USSD is a protocol used by cellular telephones to communicate with the service provider`s computer systems.
The users will have to dial *325# from their mobile to access Facebook and select the election menu (option 6) or directly dial *325*35# to access the election menu.
The facility is free of charge.
Voters will be able to know the worthiness of the candidates - their educational, criminal and financial information at their fingertips and choose wisely.
