The press secretary said this while speaking to journalists after visiting the graves of July Uprising martyrs Mehedi Hasan Rabbi and Al Amin at Parandwali in Magura on Friday.
"We want to see a peaceful, participatory election and I believe that will be possible with everyone's cooperation," he added.
Highlighting the importance of honouring those who laid down their lives for the country, he said, "To uphold the dignity of our martyrs, we must come together to build a happy and prosperous Bangladesh."
Commenting on the political landscape ahead of the elections, he added, "Once the election schedule is announced, you'll see the election atmosphere begin to take shape, candidates will go door to door, polling offices will appear in every neighbourhood, and a festive mood will spread across the country."
"We are confident that any remaining doubts will soon disappear. The election will be held in February before Ramadan," he emphasized.
He mentioned a total of 10 people martyred in July and August in Magura.
Asserting that these martyrs are the architects of the new Bangladesh and their sacrifice paved the way for today's freedom of expression and political progress, he stated, "I visited their graves to lay flowers and honour their sacrifice."
"A peaceful, beautiful election lies ahead and we owe it to their memory and contribution," said the press secretary after paying homage to the July Uprising heroes.
