Opposition Chief Whip Mashiur Rahman Ranga MP feels that something miraculous can happen in Jatiya Party(JP).
Jatiya Party announced candidates for 289 seats, but Raushan Ershad and none of her followers were nominated. Raushan's followers reacted strongly after the release of the list.
On Tuesday (November 28) at noon, the senior leaders held a meeting at the residence of opposition leader Raushan Ershad. While leaving the meeting, Ranga hints that something miracle is about to happen.
He said, madam (Raushan Ershad) is in the same position as before. If she and her fellow leaders are not nominated, will not go to the polls. As many as 30-32 candidates who have left and qualified have been excluded. Raushan Ershad will not go to the polls without them. Stay away from elections if necessary.
In response to a question, he said, the discussion is going on, there can be a miracle. What GM Quader has done is unprecedented. Sitting MP has picked up the nomination form for Saad Ershad's seat. My niece went to pick up the party nomination form without showing him even the slightest courtesy.
He said, I will go to the constituency (Gangachara) tomorrow. If the people want, I will contest as an independent candidate.
In response to a question, he said, I was elected as the Secretary General of the Jatiya Party through the council. He undemocratically removed me from office. It is duplicitous to talk about democracy and not practicing democracy within your own party. This duplicity is the cause of the present state of the Jatiya Party.
List of candidates of Jatiya Party has been published leaving 11 seats vacant including Mymensingh-4 (Sadar) seat of Raushan Ershad MP. Jatiya Party Secretary General Mujibul Haque Chunnu has said that the seat has been kept vacant in respect of Raushan Ershad, the chief patron of the party, who did not take the party nomination form.
