Khulna city polls a drama: BNP

BNP today termed the Khulna City Corporation (KCC) election as a farce and blasted the local administration for helping the influential quarter of the ruling Awami League in rigging votes for its candidate.

"A drama was staged and it was nothing but a fraud of Awami League," BNP Senior Secretary General Rizvi Ahmed came up with the allegation soon after end of the voting in Khulna City Corporation.

Speaking in a press conference at the party's Nayapaltan central office in Dhaka, Rizvi also blamed the Khulna police commissioner for his alleged role in favour of ruling Awami League’s mayor candidate.
