District Awami League blamed UPDF's "vote boycott program" for the absence of votes in 19 centers. Khagrachari District Awami League General Secretary Nirmulendu Chowdhury said, "UPDF had announced the boycott. As they are armed organizations people did not come to the center to vote for fear of them. Due to this, the voter turnout in the centers of remote areas has decreased.
However, UPDF organizer Angya Marma said, "People have no faith in elections. So the voters protested by not voting.”
