Amu terms bar on elected mayor undemocratic
Awami League Presidium Member Amir Hossain Amu yesterday said several issues need to be solved for holding a credible parliament election scheduled for December 18.
These included release of Awami League (AL) Chief Sheikh Hasina, dispute over the re-demarcation of constituencies and withdrawal of emergency, he said, adding, the AL would put up these issues in the next talks with the government.
Amu termed the bar on the Chittagong city mayor to resume his office undemocratic, and said if an agitation is launched in this regard the AL would support it.
He said this while attending the qulkhwani of the daughter of Mayor Mohiuddin Chowdhury at his Chashma Hill city residence at Sholoshahar in the port city.
Fauzia Sultana Tumpa died of cancer in a Bangkok hospital on Friday last.
Amu alleged that the caretaker government had showed an inhuman attitude towards the city mayor.
