SYLHET, Jan 9, 2025(BSS) – Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) A M M Nasir Uddin today said the Election Commission (EC) is working earnestly to hold a free, fair and acceptable election.

Our goal is to present  a free, fair and acceptable election before the nation," he said while speaking at a workshop titled 'Challenges and Ways to Overcome the Voter Registration Process' organized by the Election Commission Secretariat's Capacity Building Project on the Use of ICT in the Election Process in Moulvibazar.

CEC urged EC officials participated in the workshop to refrain from any kind of biasness centring the upcoming elections.

"No partiality will be allowed in the upcoming elections. There is no reason to fear. Stern legal action will be taken against those who work in favour of somebody," he said.

He said, "A fair and impartial election depends on the election officials. Therefore, you must work properly and obey the laws. If you work properly, we will be able to hold an acceptable    election."
