Australia's top diplomat paid a visit to Bangladesh's main opposition party headquarters on Thursday. Susan Ryle sat down with BNP leaders at their Gulshan office for important election talks. The Australian High Commissioner met with Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir and other senior party officials. Abdul Moyeen Khan and Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury joined the private meeting. Organising Secretary Shama Obaid also attended the high-level discussion.

BNP leader Khasru told reporters that voters should not worry about the coming national elections. Political parties across the country want things to stay calm and peaceful during the voting process. The opposition party has been pushing for changes since they created their 2030 vision with 31 reform ideas. Khasru said moving toward elections quickly will help the nation move forward. He believes the country needs to hold fair elections as soon as possible.

The BNP politician revealed that millions of people have missed their chance to vote during recent elections. Young adults around 30 years old have never cast a ballot because of unfair voting practices. Khasru expects huge crowds will show up at polling stations when the next election happens. People across Bangladesh are excited about finally getting their democratic rights back. The opposition leader praised Australia for promising to help make the elections fair and honest.
