Advocate Ehsanul Mahbub Zubair, Assistant Secretary General of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami and head of its central publicity and media department, has called for the immediate withdrawal of the Election Commission’s decision to ban voters from carrying mobile phones within 400 yards of polling centers. In a statement to the media on Monday, he described the decision as unjust and urged the Commission to reverse it without delay.
Zubair argued that the restriction, imposed ahead of the upcoming national parliamentary election and referendum, undermines voters’ freedom and security rather than protecting them. He stated that the measure amounts to unnecessary control over citizens and called on the Election Commission to reconsider its stance.
He further warned that if the decision is not withdrawn, Jamaat-e-Islami, along with the public, would surround the Election Commission office to compel the withdrawal of what he termed an unfair decision.
