Mosharraf was speaking at a discussion on Monday.His comments came hours after another Standing Committee Member Barrister Rafikul Islam Mian addressing a human chain programme said that organisations like the TIB and the Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD) were of the same view that people would not trust any election under a partisan government.
“No matter what you call an election-time government, interim or caretaker, it must be non-partisan. There is still time … don’t push the country towards anarchy.”
The Bangladesh chapter of the Berlin-based corruption watchdog body recently proposed formation of a caretaker government to oversee the next elections slated to be held early next year.
Mosharraf also called upon the government to amend the constitution for holding the elections under a non-partisan caretaker government.
“Continue the process of democracy by meeting the demand without dillydallying, otherwise the current political deadlock will persist,” he said.
Mosharraf, a former Health Minister, said the government would have to shoulder the responsibility if anarchy broke out in the country for not meeting the demand of a poll-time government.
