Amid rumors of a runoff due to the coronavirus epidemic, Sujan told a meeting on Monday that he had no intention of going beyond the party’s decision and becoming a candidate.
Sujan said, “There are now 250 online media in Chittagong. One hundred and fifty of them are online television. It does not matter if the mobile is in your pocket. One by one, one by one.
“Once again, I see where the news is, I am interested in the position of mayor. Before I didn’t understand so many online and Facebook. Let’s see. I want to make it clear that the leader of our party (Rezaul Karim Chowdhury) is the candidate. Nobody else. “
In the Chittagong city elections, the Awami League sent Rezaul, the deputy general secretary of the party’s metropolitan committee, excluding former mayor AJM Nasir Uddin.
In addition to Nasir, general secretary of the Nagar Awami League, Sujan also wanted the ship’s nomination, but was unsuccessful.
The Electoral Commission (EC) had delivered the schedule with a voting date of March 29. But it was postponed a week ago on March 21 due to the epidemic.
Then, on August 4, the name of Sujan, the vice president of the Nagar Awami League, was announced as administrator.
Highlighting the context of fulfilling his responsibilities as administrator, Sujan said: “I came to this position after falling into the electoral trap. He had no interest in it. I want to fulfill the responsibility given by the leader with 100% devotion ”.
Addressing the media, he said: “Tell the truth, don’t make prescribed news. Some people are trying to make news against me by taking money from places. One day he wrote something against Facebook. Then thousands of people swear and hide. It comes out again after a few days. We have to meet these demons. “
Sujan addressed a memorial meeting on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the death of the late member of the Awami League presidium, Professor Pulin, at the Bangabandhu Hall of the Chittagong Press Club on Monday.
Deputy Minister of Education Mahibul Hasan Chowdhury Nawfel, Councilor of the Nagar Awami AKM League Belayet Hossain, Vice President Sunil Sarkar, Ibrahim Hossain Chowdhury Babul, Sunil Sarkar, leader of Jasad Indu Nandan Dutt, organizer of the Nagar Awami League The editor Shafiq Adnan, the editorial board members Debashish Guha Bulbul, Sheikh Iftekhar Simul, Mashiur Rahman Chowdhury and Chandan Dhar.
Although an administrator has been appointed in the Chittagong City Corporation, the Election Commission will set the voting date if requested by the Ministry at a convenient time. In that case, the current candidates will remain in office and the election will be held from the place where the vote was postponed.
However, EC officials said the commission would then decide on the number of vacancies due to death.
