Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus on Monday stressed on taking measures to stop recurrence of election rigging as the committee on investigating alleged irregularities in the 2014, 2018 and 2024 general polls submitted its report to him. After submitting the report, committee members discussed various aspects of their investigation with the chief adviser. Receiving the report, Prof Yunus said: “We had heard about vote rigging, and we knew some things. They could do nothing,” the chief adviser said, adding, for the country’s people to feel at least some relief, the faces of those involved must be unmasked. Measures must be taken so that election rigging never happens again,” Prof Yunus said.
