BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Advocate Ruhul Kabir Rizvi has organized a mass campaign in the capital’s Uttara and called upon the countrymen to boycott the upcoming national polls scheduled for January 7. 

He distributed leaflets in the kitchen market of Sector 11, Uttara on Friday (December 22) morning. 

During the campaign, Dhaka Metropolitan North Joint Convener Mustafa Zaman, Thana BNP leader Harun-Or-Rashid Khoka, Ripon Hasan, Solaiman, among other leaders and activists, were present.

Rizvi said, “The people of Bangladesh rejected the one-sided dummy election, but yesterday (December 21), I saw that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was promoting on social media that 'BNP and their allies are obstructing the poll of Bangladesh and they have intensified their efforts to implement the blockade to achieve their goals'.”

Earlier on December 20, BNP urged voters to boycott what it called a "one-sided dummy election" due in January, as Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina kicked off her campaign for a fourth consecutive term.
