The interim government on Saturday reaffirmed in the strongest possible terms that the national election will be held on time, in the first half of February 2026.
“This is the solemn commitment of the interim government to the people of Bangladesh. All conspiracies, obstructions, or attempts to delay or derail the election will be firmly resisted by the interim government and our democracy-loving patriotic people,” said the government in a statement.
The government said people’s will shall prevail and no evil force will be allowed to undermine the ‘march to democracy’.
The interim government called for unity among all political and social forces that took part in the July Uprising. “This unity is essential to protect the gains of our struggle, to resist all conspiracies against the people’s mandate, and to ensure our successful transition to democracy,” it said.
Briefing reporters outside State guesthouse Jamuna on Saturday afternoon, Chief Adviser’s Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam said an important meeting was held at Jamuna with Chief Adviser Prof Yunus in the chair. The meeting took a number of decisions.
Several advisers, including National Security Adviser Dr Khalilur Rahman, were present at the meeting.
