BNP Chairperson Tarique Rahman stated that his party would accept election results only if the voting process remains neutral, fair, and free of controversy. Speaking to journalists in Dhaka’s Gulshan on Thursday, he emphasized that any attempt to create confusion or unwanted incidents during voting would lead the BNP to reject the results. Earlier, Rahman cast his vote at Gulshan Model School and visited several areas of the capital before addressing the media.
He reiterated that the election must be peaceful and transparent, asserting that the people of Bangladesh are the true owners of the country. According to him, higher voter turnout would help prevent conspiracies and strengthen public confidence in the process. Responding to questions about isolated incidents across the country, Rahman said such actions would create negative perceptions among citizens.
Rahman also expressed hope that the Election Commission would announce results within the scheduled timeframe, noting there was no reason for delays. He described voter turnout in Dhaka as satisfactory.
