DHAKA: A delegation of Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), widely tipped to win the next national elections, met with chief adviser Muhammad Yunus on Wednesday in a "fruitless effort" to press him on the poll timetable, reports Ahsan Tasnim.
Reacting to Yunus's reiteration during the meeting that polls would be held between Dec and June next year, BNP's Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said: "We are not at all satisfied... if the election is not held by Dec, political, economic, and social situation will take a turn for the worse."
A member of Yunus administration said govt is committed to putting on trial members of Hasina's govt for killing of protesters in the weeks before its toppling, and implementing some key reforms before polls take place.
