No reason to be upset, this govt must go: Fakhrul
Friday, 10 October 2014
Urging their party followers not to be upset over the bragging by the ruling party leaders, BNP spokesman Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir Friday said this regime must be ousted through a strong movement, according to a news agency.
Fakhrul, the BNP acting secretary general, was addressing a discussion at the Jatiya Press Club, marking the 24th death anniversary of Shaheed Jehad.
Naziruddin Jehad, an activist of Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD), was shot dead in the capital during the movement against autocratic Ershad on October 10, 1990. JCD, the student associate body of BNP, and Shaheed Jehad Smriti Parishad observe October 10 as ‘Shaheed Jehad Day’.
Fakhrul claimed that though the Prime Minister had a 5-miniute photo session with the UN secretary general during the 69th UN General Assembly session, the ruling party is spreading lies that Sheikh Hasina had a long meeting with Ban Ki-moon and he did not raise any question about the legality of her government.
The BNP leader said Awami League is resorting to falsehood as they are not getting recognition from the international community.
