BNP loses senses seeing sure win of AL: Quader

Awami League (AL) general secretary Obaidul Quader accused on Sunday the BNP-led alliance of engaging in violence and carrying out bomb attacks sensing imminent defeat in the general election, reports UNB.

"The Jatiya Oikya Front lost its senses seeing huge public support for AL. Now, they are trying to trigger violence," he said.

The AL leader made the comments while talking to journalists after casting his vote at Udayan Kindergarten polling centre in Basurhat municipality in the morning.

About 3,000 AL leaders and activists were injured until Saturday night but there is no report of injury from the opposition party, he claimed.

"The election is being held peacefully except for some stray incidents," Quader said. "I believe the voting will end peacefully ... [and] the people's expectation will be fulfilled."

Quader said he will accept the election result. "I am 100 per cent hopeful about the AL-led grand alliance's victory," he said.
