Awami League General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader on Tuesday said graft case convicted BNP senior vice-chairman Tarique Rahman is more than enough to intensify crisis in the party, reports BSS.
"We don't want to see split in BNP. It's a big political party. But if it happens, then the party men will be responsible for that," he told newsmen while visiting BRTA mobile court activities in the city in the afternoon.
Quader said:"We won't do anything to intensify the internal crisis of BNP. Tarique Rahman is more than enough to do that."
About the imprisonment of BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia in the Zia Orphanage Trust graft case, the AL general secretary said court would decide whether her imprisonment will be longer or not.
There are also several cases against Begum Zia but the government would not interfere in such matters what it did in the past," he added.
The minister said sometimes BNP said that it would take part in the next parliament election under any circumstances and at a time the party avowed that it would not participate in the polls without Begum Zia. At first they must have to decide what they actually want, he added.
