BNP creates political disunity in country: Quader

Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader said on Friday BNP is the lone party which had created disunity and difference in the politics of the country.

“BNP leaders claim that they are not doing the politics of difference, but such statements are nothing but only a political rhetoric,” Quader also a general secretary of the ruling Awami League said in a statement to the mass media.

The statement was issued protesting continuous planned falsehood and confusing statement made by the BNP leaders including its secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir.

Quader said people have no more confidence on the strategy of BNP as the party’s aim is to torture minority and plunder public money, BSS reports.

Protesting the BNP leaders’ statement that they are doing the politics of unity, Quader said the people want to know what kind of unity it is.

“BNP’s political unity is based on the anti-liberation forces. Their unity is only with communal fanatics and militants,” he said.

Quader in the statement said that BNP leaders are now in extreme frustration as they are making continuously unrealistic and motivational comments.

About the government’s responsibility to freeing the BNP chief, Quader said the government has no authority to keep Khaleda Zia under arrest or release as Begum Zia is convicted for corruption.

“BNP’s another leader Tarique Rahman is also convicted for committing terrorism and corruption and now he remained in fugitive. Even the party has changed their manifesto in order to give legitimacy to the corruption,” Quader said.

Claiming that BNP has already been isolated from the people, he said BNP has already been isolated from the people for their widespread corruption. Peoples did not give any response to BNP’s movement when Begum Zia called to stage movement before tenth parliament elections in 2013, he added.
