The BNP candidate said, “I am lucky that I was able to cast my vote, as I was a candidate. But I don’t know whether voters of Dhaka-10 parliamentary seat were fortunate.” He said that he could name of 50 voting centres where the BNP polling agents were being barred from entering the polling centres.
He accused the Awami League leaders and the supporters to join the law enforcers to bar the agents from entrance.
“Many Awami League supporters gathered at centres where our agents proceeded to enter. The cards signed by me were snatched from our agents and drove out,” he said.
The constituency became vacant after Sheikh Fazle Noor Taposh resigned for contesting in the Dhaka city polls.
Taposh was elected the Dhaka South City Corporation Mayor in the February 1 election.
