Ten top field-level EC officials were informed of their replacements on Sunday. Following the note, EC Secretary Muhammad Abdullah and Additional Secretary Md Mokhlesur Rahman met Talukdar on Wednesday. “There has been a misunderstanding,” EC Additional Secretary Rahman told bdnews24.com when asked about the matter. Former Election Commissioner Mohammad Chuhul Hossain said the situation could send the ‘wrong message’ ahead of the upcoming general election. “As the committee is under an election commissioner, the matter should have been brought up there,” he told bdnews24.com.
