Bangladesh stands at a “critically tough” juncture at the moment and under the circumstances, its future course depends on the upcoming general elections, said Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) AMM Nasir Uddin. Rather, I took it as a mission, a challenge.”The Ansar and the Village Defence Party (VDP) will play a “big role” in the upcoming elections, the CEC said. Those who will have duties (to ensure law and order during voting) in the future have a responsibility to build the future of Bangladesh." He also commented that the Ansar will play a huge role in determining the course of Bangladesh through the next elections. Nasir said that the Ansar personnel were trained at 74 centres for the upcoming elections, while police personnel were receiving training in 130 training centres.
