Tangail: Power, Energy and Mineral Resources Adviser Muhammad Fouzul Kabir Khan today stated that the responsibility for conducting the referendum campaign is not solely the government’s obligation but is a collective duty of all political parties.
According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, all members of the Council of Advisers are actively engaged in referendum campaign activities across every district in the country. Beginning January 22, the campaign will extend to village levels. Khan emphasized the significance of the upcoming election, which he described as a pivotal event that will guide the nation towards a new direction.
While addressing the campaign at Shaheed Smriti Municipal Park in Tangail town, the energy adviser clarified that the interim government does not endorse any political party or candidate, asserting that all candidates are considered as their own. He mentioned that the administration has been directed to ensure the election is conducted impartially and in a festive atmosphere.
Khan urged voters to make independent decisions rather than follow external influences when casting their votes. He expressed hope that the election will result in a representative government that serves the people rather than ruling over them.
Furthermore, the energy adviser highlighted the need to move away from incidents of enforced disappearances and murders, advocating for reform in the state system. He encouraged voters to support change and a robust justice system by voting ‘Yes’ in the referendum.
The event was attended by Tangail Deputy Commissioner Sharifa Haque, Police Superintendent Muhammad Shamsul Alam Sarkar, and District Senior Election Officer Taijul Islam.
