Partners quitting 20-party alliance: Inu

Dismissing BNP’s allegation that the government is trying to split its alliance, Information Minister Hasanul Haq Inu on Sunday said the 20-party partners are deserting it to save them from the grip of Khaleda Zia’s misguidance. “It’s a blatant lie that the government is trying to split the 20-party alliance providing money. Those who joined the alliance for democracy are quitting it getting frustrated with Khaleda,” he told reporters at his Secretariat office, according to a news agency.
