Caretaker government system will not be resorted in the country, senior Awami League leaders on Saturday have reiterated citing the constitutional provision in this regard.
Information and Broadcasting Minister Dr Hasan Mahmud, also the joint general secretary of thne party, has dismissed the opposition BNP's principal demand of a non-party government to oversee the next elections.
While addresing a rally in Chittagong city, he went on to say that although BNP is now pretending to be a systematic movement, if given the chance it would create anarchy again in the country.
Hasan Mahmud said there will be no caretaker or polls-time-neutral government in Bangladesh to oversee national elections again. "There is no caretaker government anywhere in the world except Pakistan. BNP wants to follow Pakistan, but Bangladesh doesn't."
"As per the constitution, a fair and neutral election will be held in the country through the Election Commission under a government elected by people,” he said.
Meanwhile, Awami League Advisory Council Member Tofail Ahmed said, "Elections will be held as per the constitution. BNP's demand of restoration of caretaker government system is absurd."
He was replying to journalists following a street rally in Pakar Matha area under Ilisha Union in Sadar upazila.
Another senior leader of the party, Mahbubul Alam Hanif, said BNP doesn't obey the constitution as well as any rules and regulation.
Next general elections will be held as per the constitution and the Election Commission will conduct the elections, he said, ading that if BNP wants democracy, it should contest the elections.
The people of this country stay with Bangabandhu's daughter Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, he said addressing a rally in the capital.
He urged BNP to search democracy in constitution instead of searching it in streets
