Staff Correspondent
BNP Secretary General Khandaker Delwar Hossain yesterday said people will not accept any conspiracy to force BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia to leave the country. He demanded unconditional release of Khaleda and her son Tarique Rahman.
He also demanded removal of the chief election commissioner and other election commissioners saying a meaningful election cannot be held under this Election Commission (EC).
"The Election Commission is working to implement a blueprint of the government. It wants to establish a submissive government

through a rigged election." he said during a discussion organised by the BNP-led four-party alliance at the Diploma Engineers' Institute auditorium in the city.
Delwar said the election must be held under Representation of People's Order, 1972 (RPO) and it would not be acceptable if any changes are brought to the RPO.
"You (the government) have no jurisdiction to formulate any law related to the election. The election should be held under the laws made by the parliament," he said, adding that only an elected parliament can formulate laws.
Expressing worries over Tarique Rahman's health, he said Tarique may be paralysed or even die if the authorities do not send him abroad now for treatment.
Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary General Ali Ahsan Mohammad Mojahid said the EC has already become controversial due to different activities including violating the constitution and its involvement in BNP's division.
BNP Vice-president MK Anwar said to enable the country recover from the ongoing crises, there is no alternative to releasing Khaleda Zia
Bangladesh Jatiya Party Chairman Andaleeve Rahman Partho alleged that the Awami league is helping the government destroy democracy as well as the four-party alliance.
Meanwhile, 133 former lawmakers of BNP in astatement demanded withdrawal of all cases filed against former lawmaker Nazimuddin /Mam and his unconditional release. Nazimuddin is also the research and information secretary of the party's central executive committee.
The statement had the names of Khandaker Mahbubuddin Ahmad, MK Anwar, Sanvan Rahman. Selima Rahman, Syed Mehedi Ahmed Rumee, Abdul Moyeen Khan, Mosharraf Hossain Shahjahan, Mohammad Shahjahan, Shirin Sultana and Rehana Akhter Ranu among others.
