‘We got Bangladesh minus Sheikh Hasina, now we have to do it minus Awam League’
Commenting that there is peace in the country because there is no Sheikh Hasina, BNP standing committee member Mirza Abbas said that now we have to do Bangladesh minus Awami League because democracy can no longer run together.
He said that even though Sheikh Hasina fled, her cronies still remain. The country cannot move forward with those cronies. They are conspiring. However, if Jamaat and BNP work together in unity, Awami League will not be able to come again.
Mirza Abbas said this at a protest rally at the Engineers Institution in Ramna in the capital on Monday (October 28).
Stating that Jamaat and BNP should work together for the country’s interest, he said, Awami League is gone, we are happy after thinking about it. But there is no reason to be happy. Their cronies are still in Bangladesh’s politics, culture, secretariat, police, military—where, he said, their cronies remain.
The Awami League will never give up, claiming that a conspiracy is going on, the BNP leader said, in different ways, different systems are being introduced on us through different means. Today this theory comes, the day after tomorrow that theory comes. This theory unfortunately comes out of our mouths again.
BNP Chairperson's Advisor Abdus Salam said, the purpose for which the popular uprising took place is ebbing away due to various reasons. Unity between Jamaat and BNP must be strengthened to resist fascism. And national unity must be built so that the 14-party alliance cannot be politically rehabilitated in Bangladesh.
Abdus Salam also said, there may be differences between Jamaat and BNP for various reasons. But we must be united to prevent fascism. The two parties must unite before and after the elections.
