The High Court on Monday rejected the writ petition filed seeking its directives to issue a stay order on the activities related to the upcoming national election.
The HC bench of Justice Sikder Mahmudur Razi and Justice Raziuddin Ahmed rejected the petition saying it is not the right time to file a writ petition over the issue.
The writ petition was filed with the High Court on December 3.
General Secretary of Bangladesh Congress Md. Earul Islam filed the writ petition with the HC bench concerned.
The petition also sought directives to recruit district and upazila election officers instead of appointing Deputy Commissioner and UNO as returning and assistant returning officers.
