Zia was restorer of multiparty democracy: CEC

Staff Correspondent: Chief Election Commissioner KM Nurul Huda has iterated that Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) founder and late president Ziaur Rahman restored multiparty democracy in the country.

The CEC came up with the statement again after a press briefing about the recently held dialogue with political parties and other groups at the Election Bhaban at Agargaon in the city on Thursday.

“There is no democracy in the country between 1975 and 1977. All records say Zia restored multiparty democracy,” he said.
