Bangladesh opposition calls for poll boycott

IndiaTimes Thursday, 21 December 2023
Bangladesh's main opposition party urged voters Wednesday to boycott what it called a "one-sided dummy election" due in January, as PM Sheikh Hasina kicked off her campaign for a fourth consecutive term. With its leaders either jailed or in exile, opposition BNP has been calling for Hasina to resign and for a neutral authority to oversee the polls, which BNP is not contesting. ​​"Boycott the dummy election on January 7. Don't participate in the monkey game," BNP's senior joint secretary general said.
