Awami League is to be deemed responsible for all failures, including the failure of forming EC, ensuring fair elections, and failure to run the country said BNP General Secretary Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir.

"This Search Committee is not acceptable to us. We will not be involved in any of the processes related to either the Search Committee or the Election Commission," he stated.
"It has been proven to be true that no election can run fairly under the governance of Awami League. That is why we are not interested in this Search Committee," he claimed.
