Spokesperson of the Awami League-led 14-party alliance Mohammed Nasim said on Wednesday BNP is trying to create anarchy across the country ahead of the next parliamentary election, reports BSS.
"Finding no other issue to argue with the government, now the party is just trying to start a fight to create unrest across the country," he said.
Nasim, also the health and family welfare minister, was speaking as the chief guest at the 2nd National Convention-2018 and Health Exhibition at Bangabandhu International Conference Centre (BICC) in the city.
Bangladesh Private Clinic Diagnostic Owners' Association (BPCDOA) organised the event.
"At first, I have announced a grand rally of workers of the AL-led 14-party alliance at Mahanagar Natyamancha on September 29 in a meeting, after that they (BNP leaders) announced a rally on September 27, but all of a sudden they shifted their rally to September 29," he said.
Questioning about BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir's motive behind shifting their rally, Nasim said he was instigating to create chaos across the country.
"BNP leaders were trying to create anarchy over the upcoming national election as the party failed to wage any movement against the government.
The next general election will be held as per the constitution like elsewhere in the world," he said.
"The next general election will be the final game. The Election Commission will act as referee and we must have the courage to accept the results," the health minister added.
Referring to the new alliance of Mahmudur Rahman Manna and Dr Kamal Hossain with BNP, Nasim said, "I knew till now that only players can be hired to play for another team, but they have showed that the system is also available in politics."
