Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Kazi Habibul Awal on Sunday said if it is possible to organize national elections step by step then it can be done in a more free, fair and acceptable manner.
He said this process will help the commission to hold the elections easily.
CEC Kazi Habibul Awal made the remarks after a meeting with the Transparency International Bangladesh (TIB) delegation at the Nirbachan Bhavan in the capital's Agargaon area on Sunday afternoon.
Habibul Awal said we have asked TIB to make awareness on the issue of holding the national election step by step. This process will help EC to deploy more law enforce agencies which help to maintain law and order and peaceful voter-friendly environment.
He said without the help of political parties, EC would not be able to organize a free, fair and credible election.
A five-member delegation headed by TIB Executive Director Dr Iftekharuzzaman visited EC on Sunday.
