No alternative to early elections to uphold rights of people: Gayeshwar
The longer the elections are delayed, the more the fascist Hasina will continue with her conspiracies, he says
There is no alternative to holding an early election to ensure the rights of the people of the country, BNP Standing Committee Member Gayeshwar Chandra Roy has said.
"The longer the elections are delayed, the more the fascist Hasina will continue with her conspiracies," the BNP leader made the remarks while distributing blankets to the cold-stricken people at Baghair School Ground in Dhaka's Keraniganj today (4 January).
The struggle for the people's right to vote is far from over, said Gayeshwar, adding that they must unite and continue the fight to come to power.

He further said the people will bring back democracy in the country through the exercise of their right to vote.
Elected representatives are needed to make the reforms undertaken by the interim government sustainable, he added.
"Those representatives will work to fulfill the expectations and all the needs of the people."
Gayeshwar said that apart from the main issue, some intellectuals are working on other issues of the interim government which will not bring any benefit. "If they try to work on everything, none of them will be successful."
He also commented that there is no need for new reforms.
The meeting was chaired by South Keraniganj Thana BNP member Raihan Mia.
Among others, Tegaria Union BNP president Khorshed Zamindar, former member secretary of Dhaka District Chhatra Dal Pavel Mollah, senior joint convener of South Keraniganj Thana Jubo Dal Advocate Shahin Rahman, joint convener Selim Mollah, Tegaria Union Jubo Dal organizing secretary Mahbub Kajal, were also present.
