He moved on to the area and circulated electoral leaflets to the residents. He also addressed people in different spots.
Rezaul urged voters to be cautious about Coronavirus and maintain proper hygiene to protect it. “Wash your hands with soap and vote for boat,” he urged voters. His activists also chanted the slogan, “Wash your hands with soap and vote for boat.” “Vote for me and I will not increase holding tax if I am elected mayor,” he told voters. Rezaul also pledged to address longstanding problems in the city including water-logging, traffic congestion and sewerage. “I want to build a modern city, which will be one of the panoramic cities in southeast Asia,” he said. “I want to make Chattogram clean, and free of drugs and violence,” he said.
Residents who throng in the area were seen very enthusiastic to hear about Rezaul’s electoral pledges.
“The past mayors in their election campaign also pledged to address these problems but we do not see any improvement,” he said, “New mayoral candidates are also pledging to address these problems… let’s see what the next mayor can do?”
