Torching of Buses in Capital: BNP trying to take revenge on people
Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader yesterday said BNP is again trying to take revenge by burning people after voters rejected the party in the election.
Quader, also the road transport and bridges minister, came up with the remarks at a virtual conference at Bagmara upazila in Rajshahi.
Saying that the killing of people and terrorism are BNP's political culture, Quader said in past they had killed people using petrol bombs and in arson attacks.
He said the recent incidents of bus torching was quite similar to BNP's sabotage and setting fire to vehicles in 2013.
There is video footage of the bus burning incident which showed an old and familiar story, he said.
Quader said law enforcers are trying hard to unravel the mystery of a phone conversation centring Thursday's incident.
Talking about the ruling party, Quader said no "pocket committee" would be allowed and those who are sacrificing and dedicated to the party would be included in the committees.
The conference was chaired by Bagmara AL president Enamul Haque where AL organising secretary SM Kamal Hossain was present.
Rajshahi City Corporation Mayor Khairuzzaman Liton, district AL president Meraj Uddin Mollah, general secretary Golam Sarwar Abul and other leaders were also present at the event, among others.
