Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu Saturday said Turkey needed a single-party government to fight "terror," as the country prepares for snap November polls and the army battles against Kurdish militants.

Davutoglu sought to stir the faithful at the congress of the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) in Ankara with a rousing speech presenting the AKP as the natural party of power after it lost its overall majority for the first time in June 7 elections.

"A single-party government needs to be ensured to fight both the terror plague and economic challenges," said Davutoglu.

Davutoglu stressed that a one-party government would be capable of tackling all the challenges Turkey is facing - from "terror" to the global economic crisis.

"We are heading towards November 1 elections on behalf of a permanent government, sustainable development and rights and freedom for everyone," he said.
