He said this to reporters after inspecting the Chattogram-8 (Chandgaon-Boalkhali) by-poll preparation and EVM training session at Gomdandi Pilot High School in Boalkhali in the evening. The election is set to take place on January 13.
Nurul Huda said candidates can take a close look of EVM system to eliminate their misconception. Those who were taking training said that EVMs could not lead to election rigging.
