If the election is free and fair, the BNP will win by a large margin and form the government. We are 100% optimistic about victory.”Senior party leaders have expressed hope that the BNP could secure up to two-thirds of the 300 parliamentary seats, which they say would mark “a new beginning” for the country. Party leaders further claim that many citizens who had been unable to exercise their voting rights in previous elections are determined to participate this time. The BNP says young voters, first-time voters and members of the middle class are showing strong support for the party and could play a decisive role in the outcome. With polling underway on Thursday, the BNP leadership says it remains hopeful that the electorate will translate what it describes as widespread enthusiasm into a clear mandate at the ballot box.
