Issues directives to party leaders regarding polls
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said the BNP’s next plan is to cause famine in Bangladesh, as it has realized that the general election will take place despite its attempts to thwart it.
“The BNP has no leader,” the prime minister said on Friday morning, the second day of her visit to Gopalganj, during a discussion with Awami League leaders and activists of her constituency.
"The party thought there would be no election… As the election schedule has been announced, it wants to cause famine in the country by March."
She instructed everyone in her party to remain vigilant so that no one could disrupt the election. “Those planning to carry out arson attacks should be apprehended and turned over to the police. Everyone should stay alert in remote areas.”
