National Citizen Party-NCP started staging demonstrations in front of Nirbachan Bhaban demanding reconstitution of the Election Commission and arrangement of local government elections.

The NCP Dhaka city unit arranged the demonstrations against the AMM Nasir Uddin-led current Election Commission.


The demonstration began at 12:00pm in the city's Agargaon area.

The NCP leaders alleged that this Commission was constituted hastily before the reform initiatives were implemented. 'This Commission has already lost its neutrality,' said NCP Gulshan Thana unit leader Nur Islam Jewel.

Mentioning that the current Commission was constituted in line with a law formulated by the fascist regime, he said, 'We don't want this Commission which is like the Rakib Commission.'

Pointing at the BNP, these NCP leaders asked the party to test its popularity through the local body elections before going for the National Election.
