This article by Dr. Badiul Alam Majumdar, Secretary, SHUJAN, emphasizes or the need for electoral reforms and strengthening of the EC using the analogy of a soccer game, it argues that for meaningful games, the rules must be appropriate and  there must be referees who can use yellow and red cards. Similarly for meaningful electoral games. The electoral laws and rules must be modernized, including the requirement for compulsory registration of political parties and the EC must be made independent and strong. Elections will be meaningful if they lead to improvement in the quality of elected leaders.
