Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader has said Bangladesh Chhatra League’s central rally will be held on December 6 instead of 8 to ensure the smooth holding of BNP’s December 10 rally.
The decision was taken as per party chief and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s directive, he said while addressing the tri-annual conference of his party being held in Pirojpur on Sunday.
Quader, also the road transport and bridges minister, joined the event virtually from his residence in Dhaka.
“The government will not obstruct BNP’s December 10 rally but if they try to play with fire and sticks, they will be given a befitting reply,” he said.
The Awami League leader said a court in Canada declared BNP a militant organisation. “They carry out arson attacks in the name of movements.
“It is not so easy to make a man leader who fled the country signing a bond on condition of not doing politics,” said Quader.
Regarding BNP’s demand for a caretaker government, he asked BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir to say in which country of the world there is a caretaker government.
“It was your leader who said that no one is neutral except insane and children.”
Quader said the caretaker government is now banned by the court and has gone obsolete.
