, Nov. 2 -- National Citizen Party (NCP) Chief Organizer (South) Hasnat Abdullah has said that the election must be held in February and that only those seeking to create a confrontation between the government and the July Charter want to delay it.

"If reforms are not implemented, how will the election take place? If this government does not have the mandate for reforms or for declaring the July Charter following the mass uprising, then under what mandate will it hold the election? I want to see that," said Hasnat.

The NCP leader came up with the information while talking to reporters at a press briefing after a coordination meeting aimed at strengthening the party's activities at the Bhola Zila Parishad auditorium on Sunday afternoon....
