They [United States] are demanding free, fair, peaceful and transparent elections and they will impose restrictions on those trying to resist elections. We want election,’ said Quader while addressing a rally what the party called ‘peace and development rally’ at the south gate of Baitul Mukarram National Mosque in Bangladesh capital Dhaka.

Replying to the BNP secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir’s last message urging prime minister to quit, Quader said that the next election would be held under Sheikh Hasina government as the poll-time government.
