Manama, The Executive Directorate for the By-Election for the Council of Representatives announced that voters in the first constituency of Muharraq Governorate who do not have their passports on election day, due to loss or other reasons, can visit the Nationality, Passports, and Residence Affairs (NPRA) office at the Muharraq Security Complex on election day or during the run-off.
