In Cumilla, the atmosphere ahead of the upcoming election has taken on a festive tone, with thousands of residents traveling back to their home districts to cast their votes. Bus stands, railway stations, and highways have become crowded as people, driven by both family ties and civic duty, make their way home despite high travel costs. Many describe the experience as emotionally fulfilling, treating the act of voting as a celebration akin to Eid.
Workers from the Cumilla Export Processing Zone are among those returning home, saying that years of work pressure often kept them from voting, but this time they are determined to participate. Passengers like Jewel Rana and Ayesha Akter expressed joy at being able to vote again after many years, describing it as a deeply personal and patriotic duty. Railway stations are packed, with trains filled to capacity and even passengers riding on rooftops.
Local law enforcement, including the Cumilla Highway Police, reported that they are maintaining heightened vigilance to ensure a peaceful and orderly election environment, with no untoward incidents reported so far.
