Ershad slams politics of arson attack
Tuesday, 20 January 2015
Expressing disappointment over the recent spate of arson attacks amid the 20-party's countrywide indefinite blockade, Jatiya Party (JP) chairman HM Ershad said Monday he feels ashamed of identifying himself as a politician because of the 'politics of arson attack,' reports UNB.
"I feel ashamed of identifying myself as a politician. We didn't want this politics… I'm in politics for people's welfare, not for politics of killing," he told reporters after visiting the arson attack victims at the burn unit of the Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH).
