PM’s India visit fruitless without Teesta deal: Fakhrul

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir

Senior Correspondent: BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said that Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s India visit will be meaningless if the Teesta water sharing deal is not signed.

The BNP leader came up with the comment while talking to media after placing wreaths at the Late President Ziaur Rahman’s grave in the city’s Sher-e-Bangla Nagar in observance of 30th founding anniversary of Zia Parishad on Wednesday noon.

While talking to reporters, Fakhrul said, “Without the Teesta deal, no other treaty or agreement will be fruitful.”

He came down on heavily on Sheikh Hasina for seeking vote for Awami League taking advantage of power and facilities entitled to the prime minister.

Referring to recent activities of militancy, Fakhrul alleged that the government is using the issue for political purpose.
