No scope to engage suddenly sprouted up organizations with AL: Quader

Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader on Sunday said there is no scope to engage suddenly sprouted up organizations with the AL as the party has recognized associate bodies and sub-committees as per its constitution.

“As per the constitutional provision of Awami League, it has associate bodies and sub-committees. Apart from recognized bodies, there is no scope for any organization to get engaged with the party by adding words like ‘League’ or ‘Awami’ with its name,” he said.

Quader, also Road Transport and Bridges Minister, said this at a press conference at his official residence in Dhaka.

He said when a party stays in power, different groups of opportunists and ‘cuckoos of spring’ make such evil attempts to engage with the party and different parasites also get engaged.

As per the party president’s announcement, if anyone inside the party is found directly or indirectly involved with such acts, immediate organizational actions will be taken against him or her, he said.

The AL general secretary said administrative steps will also be taken against those who will make evil attempts to serve interests of individuals by using party identity or using the name of the party.

If any controversial person entered the party or if questions arise over activities of anyone, written complaint can be lodged to election tribunal at the party president’s political office as per the party constitution, he said.
