Kamal thanks Menon for remarks on 30 Dec polls

Jatiya Oikya Front convener Kamal Hossain on Sunday thanked Workers Party president Rashed Khan Menon, MP for what he said confirming that people could not cast their votes in the 30 December national election, reports UNB.

"I'm happy he (Menon) did it, even if it's late. I've long been saying it (people could not cast their votes)," he said.

Kamal further said, "Wherever I go I ask people whether they could cast their votes on 30 December. I still didn't get a single positive response to it, and he (Menon) has now confirmed it. That's why I thank him."

He came up with the remarks while talking to reporters after a meeting of Jatiya Oikya Front's steering committee at his Motijheel chamber.

On Saturday, Menon at programme in Barishal said people could not cast their votes in the 30 December polls and subsequent local body ones.
