The government has formed a five-member committee, headed by Justice Shamim Hasnain, former judge of the High Court Division, to investigate the allegations raised over the last three Jatiya Sangsad elections and to make recommendations to hold fair election in the future.
The Cabinet Division issued a notification in this regard on Thursday. It will come into immediate effect.
The committee has been asked to submit its report to the government by September 30, 2025.
It said that the interim government has decided to investigate the corruption, irregularities, and crimes committed during the last three general elections in order to secure the voting rights of common people, to secure democracy in the country and to resist the apprehension for further fascist and authoritarian regimes.
The notification said that the last three Jatiya Sangsad polls in 2014, 2018 and 2024 drew huge criticisms both at home and abroad while there is also a strong allegation of electing Awami League in a staged process through pursuing various means by foiling the voting rights of common people.বিস্তারিত
