Dhaka: The candidates of Jatiya Oikyafront (JOF) who contested the 11th parliamentary elections with ‘Sheaf of Paddy’ symbol sat in a meeting at BNP chairperson’s Gulshan office on Thursday.

The meeting began around 12:15 pm, reports the UNB.

Each of the candidates will submit a report with necessary documents about the irregularities occurred during election in their respective areas.

Later, they will submit a memorandum to the Election Commission (EC) demanding a reelection under a nonparty caretaker government.
