NARSINGDI, Nov 12 (UNB): Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Sunday said her government can't be overthrown by carrying out clandestine attacks as the people are not behind the opposition movement.
"What can they do by imposing blockades? They want to topple the government. But how can they overthrow the government? The government can't be ousted by clandestine attacks," she asserted.
The premier was addressing a huge public rally arranged by Narsingdi district Awami League at Musleh Uddin Bhuiyan Stadium here in Narsingdi.
She said if the people don't join, a movement can't be waged. "BNP is a terrorist party. Jamaat is a party of war criminals. The people of this country can't hear their words (call)," she added.
The PM blasted BNP as it came up with blockade and strike programmes accusing them of burning the people through arson violence at a time when the students will sit for examinations this November ahead of the next general election.
"They dare not to come in public," she said adding that they rather set buses and even ambulances on fire and burn the people, emerging from any lane.
She said BNP men beat journalists and police and lynched police in broad daylight. "They've utterly been violating human rights," she said.
