Awami League (AL) leader Tofail Ahmed yesterday threatened of a vigorous movement to thwart election under Justice KM Hasan as chief adviser of the caretaker government and Justice MA Aziz as Chief Election Commissioner.

He told a rally at Bapta union Parishad ground that Hasan and Aziz were tailored to rig the polls in favour of BNP. Elections under them will not be impartial, free or fair, he added.

Referring to the recent statements of the ruling party leaders that the reforms proposal of the opposition is unacceptable, Tofail said they would not allow any election without the reforms.

"We shall not take part nor shall we allow holding conspiratorial polls. We will launch a vigorous movement when the ruling party leaders have no scope to escape the public wrath," warned the AL presidium member.
