Let’s unite all forces against the government’s insane act of postponing the election!
The latest move by the government to rob people’s sovereignty has come to the fore by deciding not to allocate money for printing postal ballots.
The government, which does not have a referendum, is afraid to hold the election, and because of that, the conspiracies to postpone the election have not ended yet. For the 22nd time, the government has made another cowardly attempt to postpone the elections.
However, the government’s continuous tricks to postpone the election were defeated one by one before the law.
It must be emphasized that election is a constitutional requirement, and no one has the power to violate it. We as a country have experienced many infamous historical events regarding the postponement of elections etc. and we must close all the ways to repeat those black events. Informing that we will continue to take legal action against all those who are conspiring to postpone the election and to give maximum punishment before the law.
Therefore, the opportunity has arisen for all the forces of the opposition and all other progressive forces to gather in one camp against the cowardly actions taken by the government to postpone or not hold the elections in serious violation of the democratic rights of the people.
It is an irresponsible responsibility at this moment and I recall that the critical moment has come to not allow the crazy government to play with the sovereignty of the people.
