He told reporters at the Secretariat on Sunday (July 20) afternoon. Stating that there is still time for the elections, the Home Affairs Advisor said that fair elections are possible only with the current law and order forces. The police are being trained and overall preparations are being made ahead of the elections. In response to journalists’ questions about the recent clash surrounding the National Citizens Party (NCP) rally in Gopalganj, Md. Jahangir Alam Chowdhury said that no one is being arrested except the guilty. In response to a question, the Home Affairs Advisor said that the incident happened in Gopalganj. I admit that. Many things happen in politics. However, whether action is being taken after this incident is the big issue. Besides, the committee formed will decide whether a case will be filed in the Gopalganj incident or not. At that time, he also said that the situation in Gopalganj is currently normal. Although Section 144 is still in force there, it will be lifted in phases depending on the situation.
