BNP suffers drought in election and movement as well

Awami League General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader said where is evidence of people’s massive support for BNP? The party has public support neither in election nor in movement. Actually it is suffering from drought in polls and movement as well.

He was addressing a winter clothes distribution programme at Five Star ground at Saidpur upazila in Nilphamari on Saturday.

Quader said BNP does not want Digital Bangladesh as they cannot tolerate the country’s development.

About the use of electronic voting machines (EVMs) in the Dhaka city polls, Quader said they will accept any decision of the Election Commission in this regard as “we have no fear”.

The AL general secretary said elections using EVMs is a modern system. But as election date is approaching, BNP raises questions over EVM and neutrality of poll, he added.

Commerce Minister Tipu Munshi, State Minister for Relief and Disaster Management Dr Md Enamur Rahman, AL Joint General Secretary AFM Bahauddin Nasim, Rabeya Alim, MP, District unit AL president Dewan Kamal Ahmed and General Secretary Mamtajul Haque, addressed the function, among others.

AL Organizing Secretary BM Mozammel Haque presided over the function.
