Govt's billboard strategy won't work

BNP acting secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir yesterday said the government had illegally grabbed billboards at different parts of the country and was confusing people by projecting its “so called” development activities on those.
“The government's such strategy to confuse people, however, won't work as they [people] have decided to say no to this government in the next election,” Fakhrul told an iftar programme at a city hotel, organised by Zia Memorial Library.
At the discussion, "Necessity of Tarique Rahman's Role in the Present Political Context”, BNP vice-chairman Sadeque Hossain Khoka and Jubo Dal president Syed Moazzem Hossain Alal personally attacked Sajeeb Wazed Joy, son of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, terming him a fool for his recent comments that the Awami League would win the next general election.
The BNP spokesperson and other leaders also highly lauded BNP senior vice-chairman Tarique Rahman terming him a qualified politician who, according to them, would be country's visionary leader.
The government has already understood that they will lose the election under a caretaker government, said Fakhrul. “That's why the government is hatching a conspiracy to hold the election under them. But we will not allow the government to make it happen.
“After Eid we will wage a tougher movement under the leadership of Khaleda Zia...to realise the demand for the caretaker government system,” he said.
