Awami League (AL) General Secretary Obaidul Quader today
said though the AL proposes names were dropped, the party is satisfied over the
formation of new Election Commission (EC) as per the Constitution.
"We have trust in the newly formed Election Commission.
Awami League is extending heartiest greetings to the new EC," he said this
in a statement issued here.
Quader, also Road Transport and Bridges Minister, assured of
extending all-out cooperation in all activities of the new commission.
He hoped that the next general elections will be held in
free, fair, acceptable and neutral manner under the new EC.
Before the 11th parliamentary elections, AL had pleaded to
the nation that a new commission will be formed through Election Commission
formation act in light with the Constitution before the 12th general elections,
said the AL general secretary.
As per the electoral pledge, Chief Election Commissioner and
other Election Commissioners Appointment Act, 2022 has been formulated and the President
formed the new EC as per the act, he mentioned.
"We expect that the honorable members of the new
election commission will discharge their duties and responsibilities with
honesty and sincerity and they will ensure that the people can reflect their
opinion through their votes," Quader said.
The minister said all of those, who have been appointed as
the chief election commissioner and other commissioners, worked with
efficiency, honesty and competence in their respective careers.
Quader hoped that the new EC will fulfill the people's
expectations by discharging their duties with efficiency likewise they did in
the past.
The AL general secretary urged all political parties to keep
peaceful and democratic atmosphere in the country without creating confusion in
the people's minds by making illogical and controversial comments over the commission
to take only political advantage.
"We believe that the new EC will be able to fulfill the
people's aspirations by holding a free and neutral elections for keeping
continued the ongoing democratic trend and taking ahead the country with the
spirit of the Liberation War," he said.
He also hoped all registered political parties including BNP
will join the next general elections following the democratic rules and
practices.
Quader said the President formed the EC following a legal
procedure through the Search Committee as per the Constitution which has
already been acceptable to all.
All political parties will have to play responsible roles in
extending support to the new commission for holding a free and fair election,
he mentioned.
