The next parliamentary election will be held under a caretaker government, Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed has said.
In response to a question from journalists at a press briefing on current affairs at the home ministry on Sunday, Salahuddin said: “The next national election will definitely be held under a neutral caretaker government.”
Describing the arrangement as a key commitment stemming from the political consensus and movement, he said: “The Supreme Court has overturned the verdict on the 13th Amendment delivered by Justice ABM Khairul Haque and judicially revived the system.
“Necessary amendments will be made to the Constitution through the legislature to restore and reinstate the caretaker government system.”
