UNB, Dhaka :
BNP on Sunday feared that though the search committee has sought names from political parties and planned to exchange views with eminent persons, finally the Prime Minister’s desire will be reflected in formation of the Election Commission (EC).
BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi voiced the apprehension at a press conference at the party’s Nayapaltan central office. The search committee formed by President Abdul Hamid held its first meeting on Saturday asking each of the 31 political parties which took part in talks with the President over formation of the next EC to propose five names within Tuesday.
The search committee members also deiced to sit with 12 eminent citizens of the country at 4 pm on Monday to take
their opinions over the fresh EC formation. President Abdul Hamid on Wednesday formed a six-member search committee, headed by Supreme Court’s Appellate Division judge Justice Syed Mahmud Hossain, for reconstituting the new Election Commission (EC).
Rizvi said the results of talks over the Election Commission formation in the past were zero while the caretaker government system revoked through the 15th amendment to the constitution only to reflect an individual’s will though all MPs, Awami League leaders, noted citizens and constitutional experts had given opposite opinions.
The same way, one person’s (PM’s) desire was reflected in constitution of the current Election Commission. Even after the President’s dialogue with political party this time, the search committee has been formed unilaterally. So, there’s no chance to reject the possibility of reflecting the one persons’ will in constituting the Election Commission, the BNP leader said.
