Those who have been proven to be involved in election-related crimes in previous polls must be brought to justice, said Chairman of the Election Reform Commission (ERC) Badiul Alam Majumdar.
He was talking to journalists after a view exchange meeting with election commission at the Election Bhaban in the capital's Agargaon on Wednesday (4 December).
Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) AMM Nasir Uddin, four other election commissioners and the members of Election Reform Commission attended the meeting.
ERC Chairman Badiul Alam Majumdar and Election Commissioner Brigadier General (Retd) Abul Fazl Md Sanaullah briefed the journalists after the meeting.
Badiul Alam said various election-related issues including its independence, power, and responsibility were addressed during the discussion with the newly formed Election Commission.
He vowed that Election Commission is committed to holding a free and impartial election.
He said, “Several reform proposals will be made by the ERC so that the EC can do its duties smoothly and successfully.”
The Election Commission can implement some of the ERC proposals, while the government and political parties will do the rest of them.
