If anyone comes seeking votes, get the account of electricity and fertilizer: Delwar
Delwar Hossain, the Jamaat-e-Islami candidate backed by the 11-party alliance in the by-election for the Thakurgaon-1 constituency, called for demanding accountability from candidates who come seeking votes over the electricity and fertilizer crisis and price hikes.

He made the call at an election courtyard meeting on Sunday (October 11) noon in Chilarong Union of the Thakurgaon-1 constituency. Delwar Hossain alleged that after the election, the ruling party has become involved in corruption, irregularities, extortion, and partisan favoritism. He also remarked that if they are elected in the future, the suffering of the people will increase further.

He said that if elected, he will ensure good governance and accountability. He will not allow misuse of government allocation funds and will not politicize the distribution of allocations. He also promised to provide government opportunities and facilities equally to everyone regardless of religion, caste, and political affiliation.

Raising allegations of corruption and irregularities against past public representatives, Delwar said this did not change the fate of ordinary people; rather, he claimed that the wealth of elected representatives, their relatives, and followers increased. Noting that Jamaat-e-Islami wants to build a discrimination-free and humane society, he sought local people's cooperation to build a Thakurgaon free from drugs, terrorism, and extortion.

Urging people to vote for the scales symbol on October 29, he said that justice and equity-based leadership is needed to establish a society free from terrorism, extortion, and drugs.
