Both Sheikh Hasina and Khaleda Zia had "almost agreed" to be a part of the election time government, he said, addressing a discussion at the Jatiya Press Club in the city.
Gaffar Chowdhury further said: "An agreement was almost reached under the UN mediation that Sheikh Hasina would remain the prime minister, but without any executive power.
