Even if BNP tells truth now, people won’t believe it. This is like the story of the cowboy who used to tell lies. They’re spreading misinformation about Khaleda Zia's health, Awami League general secretary Obaidul Quader said.
He said this while delivering speech at a programme, marking the Silver Jubilee of Awami Swechhasebok League (BASL) on Saturday.
The deterioration of Khaleda Zia's health condition is more of propaganda than the real, he said adding doctors did not say her health condition is deteriorating but they claim so.
The Awami League leader said BNP was behind the recent rumours across the country, “The BNP office is a big rumour factory. From there, rumours and propaganda are spread through press briefings."
The Road Transport and Bridges Minister said: "Rumours are being spread across the country. Some people are speaking against the country both at home and abroad. The government will investigate it.”
Speaking to Swechhasebok League leaders, Obaidul Quader said, “Our path is still full of challenges. The development in the country triggered by Sheikh Hasina has unlocked huge opportunities.”
He inaugurated the programme by releasing balloons and pigeons and cutting a cake.
BASL President Mollah Mohammad Abu Kausar, general secretary Pankaj Debnath along with a large number of central, metropolitan and district committee leaders were present.
