The Awami League does not need to resort to electoral fraud because it has won over people, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said. Addressing a campaign rally in Dhaka’s Kalabagan on Monday, the ruling party chief also urged the people to cast their ballot in the Jan 7 polls and give a “befitting” reply to the BNP’s violent boycott of the election. “We get the people’s vote because we’ve won their hearts by working for their education, food, clothing and housing. We don’t need to rig the vote,” she said. Hasina recalled the High Court declared illegal the military rules of Ziaur Rahman and HM Ershad, the founder of the BNP and the Jatiya Party, respectively.
