BNP mayoral candidate Mosaddek Hossain Bulbul on Monday refrained from casting his vote protesting irregularities in the city corporation election.
The BNP mayoral candidate took position in front of Islamia College polling centre in the city’s Binodpur area protesting the ouster of the party’s polling agents from different polling stations.
Bulbul also alleged that the BNP supporters were obstructed from casting their votes.
He also demanded the presiding officer make public how many ballot papers are there at the centre and threatened not to leave the place until he gets the account of the ballots.
Replying to a question from journalists, Bulbul said, “It’s pointless to cast vote in such a country where there’s no democracy. I don’t want to create any problem. Which centre will I visit? Where can I resist rigging? So, I’ve taken a position right here and seeing the irregularities silently.”
