Tofail rules out talks with BNP

FE Report | Monday, 15 December 2014



Commerce Minister Tofail Ahmed ruled out on Sunday the possibility of holding dialogue with the BNP.
"You (Khaleda Zia) made a blunder by not participating in January 5, 214 elections. You alone should take the responsibility for this," he told the media after placing wreaths at the portrait of Bangabandhu at 32 Dhanmondi in the capital on the day.  
"There is no possibility of holding dialogue with the BNP. The next election will be held in 2019. I call upon you (Begum Zia) to take part in the election. There will be no benefit through waging movement," he said.
