Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami yesterday said people of the country expect that Awami League President Sheikh Hasina as per her commitment in yesterday's press conference would establish good governance and peace in the country.

In its primary reaction over the 9th parliamentary elections the party said despite questions over credibility of the polls, Jamaat as a proelection and pro-democracy party thinks that the country should run under an elected government rather than a non-electedone.

Jamaat gave the reaction in a statement signed by its publicity secretary Prof Md Tasnim Alam after a meeting of the party's central executive council held at its office yesterday afternoon. Ameer of the party Motiur Rahman Nizami presided over the meeting.

According to the statement, the 9th parliamentary election was held as per the roadmap announced by the caretaker government. "The results of this election are abnormal and the opinion of the people was not reflected properly," it said.

Apparently, the statement said, the election was held in a festive mood but there are lots of questions in the minds of the people about the results
