Dr. Ali Riaz, Special Assistant to the Chief Adviser, has called for unified implementation of the referendum verdict following a decisive 'Yes' victory. He made the statement on Saturday at a press conference held at the Foreign Service Academy in Dhaka, where he discussed the results of the referendum held on February 12. Riaz, who coordinated the public awareness campaign for the referendum based on the July National Charter, said that voter turnout exceeded that of the national parliamentary election by more than one percent.
According to the Election Commission, 77,695,023 voters participated in the referendum, representing 60.84 percent of eligible voters. Among them, 48,206,660 voted 'Yes', accounting for 68.06 percent of the total votes cast, while 22,071,726 voted 'No', or about 31 percent. Riaz emphasized that the strong voter participation and majority support demonstrated the public’s clear stance on the issue.
The official gazette of the referendum results has been published, and newly elected members of parliament are scheduled to take oath by February 17.
