Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) A M M Nasir Uddin yesterday said the Election Commission (EC) would be capable of conducting a free and fair election with the support of the people.
“If the people of the country stand with us, we will be able to ensure fair elections, InshaAllah,” he said, while talking to journalists at the Election Building in the capital’s Agargaon.
“You will get the election date and schedule in due time. And you will know it from the EC. We will definitely inform you about it. But you will have to wait a little for that,” he added.
Referring to his meeting with Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus, the CEC said, “During the meeting, he (Chief Adviser) inquired me about the preparations for the elections. I informed him that the preparations for the elections are going on in full swing.”
He added, “I understood at the courtesy meeting with the Chief Adviser that he is very sincere about holding a fair election in the country and transferring power democratically. His sincerity in this regard is unquestionable.”
“Our sincerity is also unquestionable. We are now on the same wavelength to make the election fair, acceptable and neutral,” he continued.
