BNP has no interest in presidential polls

BNP senior leader Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain on Saturday said their party has no interest in the presidential election.

"We do not want to comment on what this government is doing or not doing," he told reporters at a press conference at the BNP chairperson's Gulshan office as they sought his comment on the ruling party's nomination for the presidential election.

The BNP leader said the purpose of their press conference was to inform the media about the attacks and obstruction by the police and the ruling party activists during their party's countrywide march programme at the union level on Saturday.

Mosharraf said they are least bothered about who is going to be the next president of the country as their main focus is now on the ongoing movement for realizing their 10-point demand, including the restoration of the government.
