BNP hatching multifaceted plots when country moving fast: Hasan

Information and Broadcasting Minister Hasan Mahmud said BNP secretary general's statement proves that they are the main patrons of militants, reports UNB.
"After the arrest of some militants in Kulaura of Moulvibazar recently, Mirza Fakhrul said this militant drama has been staged to divert the attention of the people. This proves that BNP leaders, including the secretary general, are the main patrons of militancy," he said.
"We strongly condemn this statement of the BNP secretary general. We have suppressed militancy, we could have eliminated militants if they (BNP) did not patronise militants," said the minister.
Hasan, also Awami League joint general secretary, was addressing a discussion, organised by Muktijudher Chetonar Sangbadik Forum at the Jatiya Press Club in the city on Monday, marking the 48th martyrdom anniversary of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman

THe minister said BNP and its allies are hatching a multi-pronged conspiracy when the country is moving fast under the leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
