The Minister also said, “We will wait to hear what the Election Commission will say after the dialogues with the political parties.”

When asked about the position of the government regarding the upcoming elections, Anisul Haque said that the position of the government is not a big deal, the outcome of the ongoing dialogues of the commission with the parties is more important.
