Download PDF Chief Adviser (CA) Fakhruddin Ahmed yesterday said the government will start dialogue with political parties when both sides are ready, as they need time for preparation.
He said talks between the Election Commission (EC) and the political parties are going well and hoped that it would end soon, facilitating dialogue between the government and the political parties.
The CA made the remarks while talking to newsmen after he and his wife Neena Ahmed enrolled their names as voters with photographs and fingerprints at Gulshan Model School and College in the city.
Replying to a question about the possibility of holding elections ahead of the targeted timeframe, the head of the caretaker government said it depends on how the government can complete the preparatory works for the polls.
“And if those activities are accomplished in time, the elections can be held ahead of the targeted time,” the CA told the newsmen.
The CA expressed satisfaction over the progress of voter listing with photographs by applying modern technology and in transparent manner. Chief Election Commissioner ATM Shamsul Huda was present on the occasion.
Referring to the progress in the voter listing, the CA said the job will be completed smoothly and fairly, and “There is no doubt about it as a fair electoral roll was the demand of all.”
He said the EC has so far registered 2.70 crore people as voters and the work is gradually getting momentum.
Fakhruddin said the EC with the help of army is now carrying out the voter listing work in “char” and remote areas of the country.
He expressed optimism that the Election Commission with the support of the government will complete the task fairly, which is a precondition to holding a fair, transparent, neutral and acceptable election in time.
