Quader optimistic of free, fair Ducsu polls

Awami League General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader yesterday expressed optimism that the long-overdue election to Dhaka University Central Students' Union (Ducsu) and hall unions will be held in a free, fair and neutral manner.

“Ducsu polls will be held in a free and fair manner so that students can exercise their franchise,” he told reporters at the AL president's Dhanmondi political office in Dhaka.

He said polling centers were set up in respective dormitories in previous Ducsu elections. So, there should not be any debate over doing so now, he added.
