It makes no sense to expect neutrality on election day from a government that conducts anti-democratic activities throughout the year using its institutions.

Jatiya Party Chairman HM Ershad demands forming of an election-time government with the representatives of those political parties who are in the current parliament.

Nagorik Oikya Convener Mahmudur Rahman Manna rejects Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s plan on election-time government saying that the next general election will not be free, fair and credible if it is held under the present government.

BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia says the parliamentary polls must be held under a neutral administration as fair elections are not possible under Awami League government.
