The people are in the mood for the upcoming national elections. They will stand against those who try to hinder the polls, said Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader.
“We have started the sales of the nomination forms and already bought two forms on the prime minister,” he told the media on Friday (Nov 9).
The road transport minister said that people are clamouring to buy the AL nomination forms and the last date of form distribution will be decided on Sunday (Nov 11) after the party’s parliamentary board meeting with party chief Sheikh Hasina.
“The Election Commission announced the polls schedule in line with the election laws and we are following the rules,” said Quader.
“BNP announcing protests after the announcement of schedule goes against democracy but people will not pay heed to them,” he added.
On AL’s dialogue with Oikya Front, he said, “The meeting was not completely unproductive.”
