‘EC seeks report on Nayapaltan clash from IGP’

Election Commission Secretary Helaluddin Ahmed yesterday said a letter has been dispatched to the Inspector General of Police (IGP) seeking a report on the clash between police and BNP men in front of the party's Nayapaltan Central office on Wednesday. "The report may reach the Commission on Sunday...necessary steps will be taken in this connection once the report is available," he said.

The EC secretary came up with the comment while talking to reporters after attending a programme at the Public Administration Training Center at Kazirdewri in the port city. He also said there is no chance to delay the 11th parliamentary elections further. About the use of Electronic Voting Machine (EVM), he said, "Though the Commission has decided to use EVM on a limited scale, it is yet to decide in which constituencies and polling stations it'll be used."
