‘Yes’ vote wins in referendum in Rajshahi
The ‘Yes’ campaign has secured a decisive victory in the recently concluded referendum held across the Rajshahi district. Official figures released by local authorities confirmed the win earlier today, marking the conclusion of a highly contested electoral process.
According to information formalized and released by the district administration’s media cell around 11:30 am on Friday, the ‘Yes’ vote established an insurmountable lead over the opposition. The margin of victory was substantial, with the winning side leading by 512,152 ballots upon the consolidation of results from all voting centers.
The district administration’s media cell was responsible for the final tabulation and verification of all submitted ballots before making the official declaration. The confirmation at mid-morning signaled the formal end of the counting phase, allowing the results to be transmitted to the public and the relevant governing bodies.
While the administration did not immediately release the total voter turnout figures alongside the confirmation, the margin of over half a million ballots indicates a clear mandate for the proposal put forth by the ‘Yes’ side. The result is expected to pave the way for the implementation of the measure that was the subject of the public vote. Further details regarding the breakdown of votes across various upazilas are anticipated in subsequent press briefings from the district authority.
