Chhatra Dal, the student wing of the BNP, took position in front of Nirbachan Bhaban on Sunday for three-point demands, including the allegation of the commission`s biased decisions on postal voting.
As per pre-announcement, a large number of supporters of the organisation started gathering near the Nirbachan Bhaban and later they sit-in there, chanting different slogans against the Election Commission.
Nasir Uddin Nasir, general secretary of Chhatra Dal, said the organisation will continue its sit-in peacefully till night.
Chhatra Dal said the Election Commission`s `biased and questionable` decisions regarding postal ballots have created serious doubts about the neutrality of the electoral process.
It alleged that under pressure from a particular political group, the commission has taken `impulsive and short-sighted` decisions instead of responsible and rational ones, raising questions about its independence and professionalism.
They warned that such actions pose a serious threat to democratic practices in the university.
