Mansur, Mokabbir to face action if they take oath, warns Gono Forum

Gono Forum on Sunday warned that its two MPs-elect -- Sultan Mohammad Mansur (Moulvibazar-2) and Mokabbir Khan (Sylhet-2) -- will have to face both organisational and legal action if they take oath violating the party's decision, reports UNB.
Party general secretary Mostafa Mohsin Montu issued the warning at a press conference at the Gono Forum's Arambagh Central office.
"Our party's decision is not to join parliament and there're no differences of opinion about it.
They (Mansur and Mokabbir) are doing it (taking oath) on their own, not as per party decision," he said.
Montu further said, "We'll surely take lawful action if they take oath. We'll sit in a meeting and take both organisational and legal actions."
The Gono Forum general secretary urged the duo not to deceive people by joining parliament.
He said Gono Forum President Dr Kamal Hossain at a press conference on December 30 clearly said the election was unacceptable and people were deceived through it.
Montu said Mansur and Mokabbir are trying to take oath taking a stance against Gono Forum.
Meanwhile, Gono Forum's two MPs-elect -- Sultan Mohammad Mansur (Moulvibazar-2) and Mokabbir Khan (Sylhet-2) -- will take oath on March 7 to join the 11th parliament.
They will be sworn in as MPs at 11am on the day, said a source at the Speaker's office.
Separate letters have been sent to the two MPs-elect from the office of Speaker Dr Shirin Sharmin Chaudhury to this end.
