BNP leader Mirza Abbas on Monday said a minister's suggestion to break the fast with plum during Ramadan is mockery about people's religious belief, reports UNB.
Like the people's voting right, now they are making mockery about the people religious beliefs, he said.
Mirza Abbas, a BNP standing committee member, made the comments while talking to reporters at a press briefing at his Shajahanpur residence.
"The ruling party leaders will break their fast during Iftar with pricy and imported fruits but advising people to eat plum, what a responsible government they are?"
Replying to a query Mirza Abbas said during Awami League the people of the country can't perform their religious activities without pressure and fear due to skyrocketing prices of as the daily commodities.
People are passing a difficult time due to the high price daily essentials whereas Awami League doesn't bother about the citizens' sufferings, he added.
The BNP leader said his party is continuing the movement not to capture the state power, rather to restore people's rights. "Until we achieve the goal, we will continue the movement against the government."
He claimed that ruling Awami League (AL) and its local and international associates had made a plot in very beginning so that BNP could not participate in the national election.
The massive attack on BNP's grand rally on October 28 was the part of conspiracy to keep BNP away from polls, he alleged.
Mirza Abbas said after a 'dummy election', the 'dummy government' is not enjoying their time freely as they are always in fear about losing power.
Narrating his prison life, BNP leader said, "This time jail life was horrible as we were deprived of all rights."
Mirza Abbas said the BNP leaders and activists are 'captive in AL prison'.
