The BNP is planning to ramp up efforts to push for a national election by December but will avoid a direct conflict with the interim government, party sources have said.
The government must hold discussions with the political parties before finalising any decision on the proposed humanitarian channel to send aid to Myanmar’s Rakhine, National Citizen Party Member Secretary Akhter Hossain said yesterday.
Nahid Islam, an adviser to the interim government, thinks BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, by his demand for a neutral government, actually wants another controversial 1/11-styled government
The main responsibility of the interim government is to restore the people's right to vote by holding a neutral election after completing necessary electoral reforms, he added
Addressing an election rally in Seraikela, he also said a law would be brought to prevent transfer of land to "infiltrators" after their marriage to local tribal women.
Unless the interim government issues a roadmap to the next election in two to three months, the BNP may take to the streets in March or April next year, say top leaders of the party.
The BNP leader said this government lacks political desire, as its head has clearly stated he has no political ambitions
BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir believes the Awami League should neither be barred from the national election nor be banned as a “fascist political party”, as both actions would undermine democratic practices.
