2026 election is an election to save country: CA17 Nov 2025 20:47
DHAKA, Nov 17, 2025 (BSS) - Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus today directed the divisional commissioners and deputy commissioners (DCs) to perform their duties in the upcoming national election and referendum with absolute honesty, neutrality and dedication, saying 2026 election is an election to save the country.
"This election is not a conventional one-rather, it is an election to save the country," he said while addressing the divisional commissioners and all DCs, including newly appointed 50, at the Shapla Hall of the Chief Adviser's Office (CAO) here this morning.
Describing the upcoming election as more significant than a regular five-year one, especially because it includes a referendum, the Chief Adviser said, "This is a completely different type of election. The nation has seen many farcical elections in the past, and we must play our role in helping the nation overcome those memories."
"This is the first election after the people's uprising; this election will give completeness to that uprising. Through this election, the century-long course of the nation will be determined," he added.
Emphasizing the crucial role of the DCs, Prof Yunus said there is no scope for failure of any kind. Through this election the nation will experience a rebirth, and the district commissioners should serve as midwives in this process, he said.
"You must learn and understand everything that needs to be learnt. The election must be made both festive and peaceful at the same time," the Chief Adviser emphasised.
