The main opposition BNP has demanded a delay in announcing the election schedule. And yesterday, Sunday, the Chief Election Commissioner mentioned to the journalists that he wants a compromise between the two parties. On the other hand, when Election Commissioner Shahnewaj was asked based on Chandpur's statement earlier, he replied that it will be announced soon, but did not mention any date.
It is to be noted that Election Commissioner Mohammad Shahnewaz went to a meeting in Chandpur at the end of last week and said that the schedule of the 10th National Parliament will be announced by next Monday.
