Jatiya Oikya Front has sent a formal letter to Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina urging her to agree to their 7 point demand.
The letter signed by Oikya Front chief, Dr Kamal Hossain, was sent on Sunday.
In the letter, Dr Kamal greeted Hasina and praised the leadership of Father of the Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
“We achieved the independence of the country because of our Father of the Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman,” said Dr Kamal.
The letter also read: “The first condition of a democracy is to organize a neutral election. Only those elected by the people will run the country and that is our constitutional right.”
Dr Kamal said: “You will agree with me that Bangladesh’s citizens see the national election as a big celebration. The ‘one person one vote’ was made sure by Bangabandhu and it is our constitutional responsibility to make it happen.”
He also said: “Bangabandhu taught us how to do positive politics and it is not unknown to us how negative politics divided us in the past.”
The letter further read: “To overcome the current challenge, we the Jatiya Oikya Front have announced a 7-point demand and an 11-point goal.
“We expect to sit for a meaningful dialogue with your party, Bangladesh Awami League, and want your cooperation to make it happen.”
