Referendum is important for future Bangladesh: Adviser

“The referendum for implementing the ‘July Charter’ on the occasion of the 13th Jatiya Sangsad (JS) polls slated for February 12 will be a milestone in country’s governance,” Ali Imam Majumder, also in charge of the food ministry, told a huge gathering here today.

The district administration organized the gathering to promote the referendum and motivate voters at the Dargah Hat ground adjacent to Khan Jahan Ali (R.A.) Shrine here this noon.

 This referendum will reflect the people’s views, he said it would create an opportunity to build a democratic, accountable and responsible state system.

Referring to the ‘July Charter’ the adviser said,” It is not just a document; it is an outline to ensure democracy, good governance and civil rights in the country.”
Besides, “A stable and strong state can be formed only through proper implementation of this charter,” he mentioned.

 People would spontaneously take part in the referendum,  he hoped  saying, “Country’s every conscious citizen must go to the polling station and vote ‘yes’ to make the July Charter a winner.”

Deputy Commissioner (DC) of Bagerhat district Golam Md Baten and Superintendent of Police Mohammad Hasan Chowdhury were present as special guests at the rally, reports BSS.
