Land Adviser Ali Imam Majumder on Tuesday said the referendum will be an important milestone for the upcoming governance of the country.

“The referendum for implementing the ‘July Charter’ on the occasion of the 13th Jatiya Sangsad (JS) election slated for 12 February will be a milestone in country’s governance,” Ali Imam Majumder, also in charge of the food ministry, said while addressing a huge gathering in Bagerhat.

Bagerhat District administration organised the gathering to promote the referendum and motivate voters at the Dargah Hat ground adjacent to Khan Jahan Ali (RA) Shrine at noon.

This referendum will reflect the people’s views, he said it would create an opportunity to build a democratic, accountable and responsible state system.

Referring to the ‘July Charter’ the adviser said,” It is not just a document; it is an outline to ensure democracy, good governance and civil rights in the country.”

Besides, “A stable and strong state can be formed only through proper implementation of this charter,” he mentioned.

People would spontaneously take part in the referendum, he hoped saying, “Country’s every conscious citizen must go to the polling station and vote ‘yes’ to make the July Charter a winner.”

Bagerhat Deputy Commissioner Golam Md Baten and Superintendent of Police Mohammad Hasan Chowdhury were present as special guests at the rally.
