Dhaka, Dec. 27 -- The interim administration will step aside after handing over power to a government elected through a peaceful parliamentary election, according to Foreign Advisor Touhid Hossain.

Speaking on Saturday afternoon at the inauguration of a voter awareness vehicle caravan at Bhola Government School ground, Touhid said the administration expects political parties to cooperate among each other during the election process and avoid any form of disorder.

He said the government would withdraw after the polls and the country would return to a normal democratic course.

Touhid described the approaching election as particularly important, saying Bangladesh had not experienced a "genuinely credible" election over the past 15 years....
