“Broadly speaking, the election can be scheduled between the end of 2025 and the first half of 2026,” he said in a televised speech to the nation on Monday.
Regarding the killings during the movement, Shafiqul Alam said that justice will be served against those involved in killings, regardless of their affiliations.
