Participants in polls must trust people: Khasru

BNP Standing Committee Member and candidate for Chattogram-11 constituency Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury has said it’s wise to compete in the election by keeping confidence in people.

“People will not accept the path of obstructing democracy by spreading propaganda and creating trouble,” he said while conducting mass contact and an election campaign in his constituency on Wednesday.

Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury said people want to restore democracy, they want a fair election, and they are marching towards that way.

He said some isolated incidents might happen in every election but it does not mean that there is lack of level playing field. Such small incidents happen during elections across the world and Bangladesh is not an exception.

“But one should not make the election questionable in plea of such occurrence and those people who don’t actually want the election follow this manoeuvre,” he pointed out.

He said the upcoming election is going to be held based on public support; none would be able to obstruct the election.

People will get back their ownership in the state and people want to see the country ruled by their elected representative, he said.

BNP city unit joint convenor M A Aziz, executive committee member Haji Hanif Sawdagar and local BNP leaders Haji Kamal Uddin, Md Selim, Md Salah Uddin and Haji Hossain were present.
