Badruddoza writes president for dialogue

Bikalpa Dhara Bangladesh (BDB) President and Juktofront Chairman Dr AQM Badruddoza Chowdhury today wrote to President Abdul Hamid for a dialogue for holding the upcoming general election in a free and fair manner.

“Leaders of the Juktofront are eager to talk with you regarding some important issues” Badruddoza wrote in the letter that reached Bangabhaban around 10:00am.   

“According to the constitution, Election Commission is the main conductor of the election and president has the sole authority over the EC. That’s why we want to discuss the Election Commission’s strength and responsibilities though you for holding a free and fair election,” the letter added.

He also urged the president to fix the date for the dialogue by tomorrow as “time is very short”.

Meanwhile, BDB secretary Maj (retd) Abdul Mannan sent a letter to Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) KM Nurul Huda requesting him to sit with the party leader before November 9 for holding talks over the issues regarding the upcoming general election.

The letter was handed over to Nurul Huda by BDB’s Organisational Secretary Barrister Omar Faruk.
