Dhaka, Feb. 13 -- The National Citizen Party (NCP) has demanded a recount of votes in several constituencies, alleging irregularities and manipulation in the announcement of election results.

The party alleges that the results are being tampered with in a planned manner in some centres.

NCP Spokesperson Asif Mahmud Shojib Bhuyain made the allegation at a press conference held at the NCP central office in Bangla Motor in the small hours on Friday.

"We are getting clear evidence of result tampering aimed at the 11-party alliance's top candidates," he alleged.

He claimed to have found discrepancies between figures reported by the media, centre-wise vote counts, and announcements made by returning officers in several constituencies.
