SCBA chief wants credible election
Friday, 23 January 2015
President of the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) Khandaker Mahbub Hossain urged the government Thursday to reach a meaningful compromise with the demonstrating parties to overcome the current 'critical situation,' reports UNB.
"The only way to resolve the ongoing political crisis is to arrange a credible election with the participation of all," he said.
Mahbub, also a member of BNP chairperson's advisory council, made the call while addressing a press conference at SCBA auditorium.
He alleged that the government has grabbed the state power through a 'voter-less' and farcical election in the name of protecting the constitution.
"Now the government is pushing the country towards destruction showing its arrogant attitude only to hang onto power at any cost."
