CEC's steps may create crisis: Nazmul Huda
Unb, Dhaka
Communications Minister Barrister Nazmul Huda yesterday said the decisions being taken by Chief Election Commissioner Justice MA Aziz regarding the voter list might create a political crisis ahead of the elections."I believe he's not a man without conscience, he'll take his decisions considering the present circumstances and the nation's interest will get the top priority," Huda said on a private TV channel replying to a question about the CEC's resignation. Huda said the CEC could be removed through the Supreme Judicial Council on the basis of a complaint. The Supreme Judicial Council may refer it to the president. He said any citizen can request the president seeking the CEC's removal. But he said his party has not taken any such decision. About the CEC's gestures and decisions regarding the voter list, the communications minister said there might be two reasons behind it. First of all, the CEC might be over confident about the responsibility the nation bestowed upon him for holding a free and fair election, and he will perform the assigned responsibility. Secondly, he might have developed an intransigent attitude to foil fair elections the people are looking for. "I don't know which decision the CEC has taken."
