Thursday, 27 November 2025
Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) AMM Nasir Uddin has expressed the hope that the law and order situation will continue to improve and everything will be in order before the voting day, reports UNB.
"It will improve gradually. As the polling day approaches, you will see everything will fall in line. Everything will be fine," he said, replying to a question if the election is possible amid the current law and order situation.
He made the remarks while talking to reporters after inspecting an election-related training and mock exercise organised by the 5th Battalion of Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) at Pilkhana in the capital on Wednesday.
The CEC said, "I won't claim that the law and order situation is perfect. You saw what it was like on August 5, 2024. Now compare that with the present. Now you can sleep safely, you came here safely, and you faced no obstacles on the way. So it will continue to improve, gradually."
He said the Election Commission will sit again with law enforcement agencies on November 30 over specific proposals. "The development strategy will be finalised there."
Nasir Uddin said law enforcement agencies are being deployed on the field with maximum preparedness to ensure a free, peaceful and neutral election.
