BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi has alleged that the ruling Awami League (AL) now depends on corrupt elements, looters, and some police officers having been abandoned by the country's people, reports UNB.
The BVNP leader came up with the remarks while speaking at a press conference at BNP's Nayapaltan central office.
He also said the recent upazila polls were marred by extensive violence, amid the absence of opposition parties and voters, as factions within the ruling party engaged in bloody clashes in their pursuit of securing the posts of chairman and vice-chairman, driven by their desire to embezzle public money.
"Awami League is now a party abandoned by people. This party is dependent on some police officers and those who grab the property and loot money of poor people, including minorities," the BNP leader said.
That's why, Rizvi said, the 'dummy' government and its puppet Election Commission are not ashamed of holding the national and local government elections without voters.
"People consider the Awami government and their Election Commission as the most shameless entities of the century," he added.
The BNP leader said the fourth phase of 'dummy' upazila elections was held on June 5 unilaterally like the previous polls.
He said the ruling party enjoyed the one-party upazila election by making themselves opponents with no opposition party and no voters.
Rizvi said the ruling party exploited the one-party upazila election by making themselves as opponents, capitalizing on the absence of any opposition party and voters.
