City Corporations Elections
Schedule of Gazipur, Khulna city polls to be announced Mar 31
Election Commission (EC) will announce schedule for Gazipur and Khulna city corporations elections on March 31.
PLEASURE IS ALL MINE / Puppeteers go in different directions
Overwhelmed by the vociferous postmortem of the city corporation polls, two footfalls on the cityscape have gone unnoticed, unappreciated, as though coming and going on stealth.
CROSS TALK / Winning and losing in city corporation elections
The ultimate tragedy will strike if people become withdrawn. It will no longer matter who wins or loses any of the many elections.
The city polls charade
The EC's tilt was no less pronounced on the eve of and on the day of the elections. Press reports, photographs and narratives of many involved in the election administration process have amply established its culpability in undermining fair election.
HUMOROUSLY YOURS / Yes We Con
THE handsome, charismatic and successful young men join hands and smile for the perfect photo.
Editorial / BNP abandoning election midway
BNP's decision to boycott the election halfway into the voting has surprised most observers.
Fulfill your pledges, people tell new mayors (video)
Though not happy with the irregularities and vote rigging during the just held city corporation elections, commoners in Dhaka city want to see their city clean, free of traffic-jam and developed.
Witnessing another ELECTION CHARADE
STUFFING of ballot boxes whether in national or local elections is nothing new in Bangladesh.
Editorial / Unprecedented attack on journalists
IT is disquieting to see that the media was conspicuously barred from properly covering the city polls.
