Last chance for JP to survive in politics

HM Ershad

Jatiya Party (JP) Chairman HM Ershad yesterday said this is the last chance for existence of JP to survive in politics.
There is no difference between 'boat' and 'plough' and relation between us is not only political, but also originating from heart.
Ershad said this at an election rally yesterday at Muladi Degree College ground under Muladi upazila in Barisal.
He said he had already instructed the JP leaders and workers to work together to ensure victory of the grand alliance candidates.
He also sought vote for Golam Kibria Tipu, a Jatiya Party candidate under grand alliance for Barisal-3.
HM Ershad hoped that the grand alliance would go to power as waves of 'Sonar Bangla' and 'Natun Bangla' have been combined in a common flow of current.
He further said there would be no problem in working with AL. Already the Awami League and JP have been working together in every constituency to ensure a huge victory for the grand alliance, the JP chief said.
"The grand alliance will not break up soon as people want them to stay in power for changes. If voted to power, the alliance will take measures to control prices of essentials," he added.
'While they illegally laundered abroad crores of taka from the country, how can four party alliance talk about saving the country and the people?
They smuggled out the money they had got from kickbacks. Don't they feel ashamed to seek vote on the excuse of saving the country?' Ershad quipped.
So to save the country from corruption, militancy and terrorism there is no alternative to electing grand alliance candidates and rejecting the BNP-Jamaat led four party alliance, the former president Ershad stressed.
The Jatiya Party chairman is set to address another public meeting same day at Bakerganj Government College for ABM Ruhul Amin Howladar, JP candidate under grand alliance in Barisal- 6.
