BNP Chairperson’s Adviser and spokesperson of the party’s Election Management Committee Dr Mahdi Amin on Thursday alleged that a rival party was attempting to create an unstable situation after “realising BNP’s impending victory.”
He made the remarks while briefing journalists at the BNP’s election management office in Gulshan in the afternoon.
“Fearing defeat, an opposing party has carried out various immoral acts since Wednesday night, which are clear violations of the election code of conduct,” he said.
Mahdi Amin alleged that incidents of dominance were reported from several areas, including Hatia in Noakhali and Chauddagram in Comilla. He also claimed that planned violence took place in some locations.
“I hope the authorities concerned will take necessary steps regarding these incidents,” he added.
Urging voters who had not yet cast their ballots to do so, he said: “People across the country are voting spontaneously. Ensure your ownership of the state by voting for the candidate of your choice.”
Voting in the 13th National Parliament Election and referendum began at 7:30am on Thursday and is scheduled to continue until 4:30pm.
