Corrigendum
Prof. Dilara Chowdhury has made an amendment to her comment quoted in the story City Corporation Election: Old Wine in Old Bottle published in the last issue of PROBE (Vol 7 Issue 7). Her actual opinion is that "though our voters may lack in awareness, there are various methods to render them aware. In that case, if the Election Commission scrutinised the details of the candidates with more care, then too the voters would have had more qualified candidates to elect." She said that the recent city corporation and pourashava elections were held peacefully. |
