Speaking at a at a press briefing at the party’s central office he said: “Several polls and international news outlets have predicted that Awami League is going to win again.”

At the press conference, the senior Awami League leader also alleged that the BNP will try to create havoc at polling stations and raise questions about the election with fake ballot papers.
He also dubbed the Jatiya Oikyo Front's ballot stuffing allegation as "a joke," saying: "The EC is an independent body and only the designated people can check ballot boxes."
Imam also said, today’s election would be important for the country and urged people to vote for the Awami League that is seeking a third consecutive term in office.
