BNP declares vote rejection program, calls upon the people to join

The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) is making pamphlets calling upon the people to reject the ‘one-sided’ election of this government in addition to enforcing hartals and blockades. Sources say that the BNP will be enforcing hartals and blockades and delivering the anti-election leaflets until January 7 across the nation.

Voting of the 12th parliamentary election will be organized on January 7. At the order of the election commission (EC), the home ministry bans all political programmes that may hamper electioneering from 18 December till the end of polling. BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi told Prothom Alo last night that the results of this election have already been determined. The election commission will just declare the results on that day accordingly.

The people, irrespective of their affiliation or views, will together boycott this fixed, ridiculous and farcical election, he added.
