Home Affairs Adviser Lieutenant General (Retd.) Md. Jahangir Alam Chowdhury has stated that honesty, efficiency, and professionalism will be the key strengths of Bangladesh’s 13th National Parliament Election. Speaking on Thursday at a law and order coordination meeting at the Bangladesh Police Auditorium in Rajarbagh, Dhaka, he emphasized that government officials and law enforcement personnel must perform their duties with complete neutrality. He warned that no political bias or favoritism would be tolerated and that any official found working for a candidate or political agenda would face strict legal and departmental action.

The meeting, organized by the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Dhaka Divisional Commissioner’s Office, was chaired by Senior Secretary Nasimul Gani and attended by senior police and administrative officials. The adviser instructed all election-related officers to strictly follow the Representation of the People (Amendment) Ordinance 2025 and the Political Party and Candidate Code of Conduct 2025. He also directed that subordinates be regularly briefed on election conduct rules and that daily or periodic meetings be held to review preparations and compliance.

Chowdhury expressed optimism that with collective effort, the upcoming national election would set a standard appreciated both domestically and internationally.
