But our party can make her son and party’s acting president Tariq Rehman the Prime Minister in her place. Tariq Rehman is ready to lead the party.
‘The administration seems helpless to protect the minorities’
Wahiduzzaman said that I am sad that I am not seeing any effort by the administration to protect the minorities. This is because Sheikh Hasina has involved the administration in corruption. She has politicized the administration as well as the army and paramilitary forces. I am also seeing a lot of anger against these institutions.
Interim government should be non-political- BNP spokesperson
BNP spokesperson while talking to ABP News said that we are demanding that the interim government should be non-political. They should hand over the power to the newly elected government as soon as possible. Along with this, elections should be held once in the next 3 months and power should be handed over to the newly elected government. He said that the situation in Bangladesh is very terrible. In such a situation, it is very difficult to identify who is killing whom.
Wahiduzzaman further said that former PM Sheikh Hasina’s party Awami League offices are being attacked. This should not happen. He said that we do not want any political party to face such situations. I am worried to see these situations. Where people are very angry. They are destroying the offices of the ruling party and setting them on fire. They are not from any particular party. Some of them are associated with the Awami League itself.
BNP chairman appeals to party workers to protect minorities
BNP Spokesperson Wahiduzzaman said that our party’s acting president Tariq Rehman on Monday (August 5) had urged all leaders and party workers to organize protests in all parts of the country.
