Blueprint to rig polls will be thwarted: Oli


Executive President of Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) Col (retd) Oli Ahmed yesterday said the four -party alliance's "blueprint" to rig the elections will be thwarted through a vigorous movement jointly led by the 14-party combine and the LDP.

"The administration set up by the BNP-Jamaat coalition has already started shattering in the face of our strong movement...Their debacle in the next general elections is inevitable," Oli told a public meeting at Satkania High School ground in the afternoon.

Oli said his party will continue its movement until a congenial atmosphere for holding a fair and neutral election is created.

The LDP leader said he lost the election in Satkania-Lohagara constituency in 2001 due to the conspiracy of Jamaat. "I'm going to fight from the same constituency again and I'll win."

Chaired by former vice-president of Chittagong South District BNP AGM Shahjahan, the meeting was addressed, among others, by LDP Joint Secretary Shahdat Hossain Selim and ex- president of Chittagong City BNP Salimullah.
