BNP terms CEC's DNCC polls comment 'deceptive'
Thursday, 7 February 2019
A BNP senior leader termed on Wednesday 'deceptive' Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) KM Nurul Huda's comment about holding the upcoming by-polls to Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) 'just like the 11th parliamentary election', reports UNB.
"The CEC yesterday (Tuesday) said the city corporation by-polls will be fair like the national election. With such a comment, he has just given a hint of making another fraud with the nation over the election," he said.
BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi made the comments while speaking at a press conference at the party's Nayapaltan central office in the city.
He also said Nurul Huda's remark about the city polls has exposed that he has become a "cruel clown" after arranging a national election of grand vote 'robbery'.
Rizvi said it is difficult to imagine how a CEC who held different important posts, including that of secretary, of the government can be so much shameless. "It's very unfortunate that he is indulging in impudicity after selling his soul."
He said the entire nation has got stunned over the activities of the CEC who is working to destroy the country's election system.
The BNP leader said the 11th parliamentary election was accepted nowhere -- neither at home nor abroad -- due to massive vote 'robbery'. "The law enforcers stuffed ballots the night before the voting day while voters were barred from going to the polling stations."
