Replacing the leadership


In a round table discussion arranged by The daily Prothom Alo, Major General (Rtd.) Ibrahim expressed his views that Sheikh Hasina & Khaleda Zia took the leadershilp of their respective parties when the parties were orphan but now both the parties are mature enough. So both of them should give up their leadership. My question is, who will decide who should lead the Awami League & the BNP? Is it the caretaker govt. or the party itself? Certainly the party itself --the members of the party--leaders of the party--the council members of the party. Does anyone within the Awami League support any other person except Sheikh Hasina as head of the party? Same is the case with the BNP.

So what is the point of putting forward suggestions on the issue that only party leaders and activists should deal with?
