Politics

Information Minister and Awami League Joint General Secretary Dr Hasan Mahmud said BNP is more dangerous than dengue in many cases.

He said, “Dengue mosquitoes bite people and BNP burns people alive with fire. So, BNP must be prevented like dengue.”

He made the statements while speaking as the chief guest in a programme titled 'Aedes mosquito eradication and awareness raising program to prevent dengue' organized by the Bangladesh Krishak League at the capital's Khamar Bari square on Friday morning.

The information minister said, “BNP never does politics for the people and their top leaders want BNP to do politics with muscle power.”

Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan attended the program as a special guest.

UNB adds: "BNP never stands by the people in dengue prevention or flood-disaster, even during corona, they have only done photo sessions and their politics is only for Begum Zia and Tarique Rahman. Now they are talking about the punishment of Tarek and Zubaida," Hasan Mahmud said.

“And their top leaders do not allow anyone from the party to hold any election, even if they stand for the post of union council or municipal councillor. Why should people do a party that cannot be elected? In other words, those leaders want BNP to remain a ‘lathial’ force and that is why they take sticks to the procession,” he added.
