Opposition Leader in the Parliament and Jatiya Party (JP) Chief Patron Raushon Ershad said her party will take part in the next parliamentary election even if Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) are used in the polls.

She said "JP is an election-oriented party. If the next 12th national election is held through the EVM system, the party will participate in the election."

Mentioning that JP has participated in the elections during crucial times in the country, the senior leader of the party said they will participate in the next election as well.

She said that people of the country now are using 4G, and 5G as the country is advancing towards information technology.

"So, there is no harm if EVMs will be used in the election process," she said.

Raushon is currently undergoing treatment at Bumrungrad Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand.
