Quader: Election cannot be impeded by obstruction
- ‘Voters coming to cast votes despite extreme cold’
- ‘Essence and beauty of democracy is the election’
Criticizing the BNP’s anti-election movement Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader said the election can not be stopped by obstruction.
“The anti-election movement has also failed, they will be defeated even if they burn people by setting fire to trains. Elections cannot be stopped by obstruction,” he said.
He said this while talking to reporters after casting his vote at Udayan Pre-Cadet Academy adjacent to his house at Bara Rajapur in Noakhali on Sunday morning.
Obaidul Quader said: "A large number of voters are coming to cast their votes in a festive atmosphere despite the extreme cold. Local and foreign observers and journalists are observing this.”
He said: "The essence and beauty of democracy is the election. Until now, everyone heard that the elections would not be participatory, free, and fair. But now, everyone can see that people are coming to polling stations to cast their votes despite the severe cold. This is the success of the election and the beauty of democracy."
