Jatiya Party (JP) Chairman HM Ershad on Saturday said, a serious situation is prevailing in the country and there is no alternative to dialogue to get rid of this condition. While exchanging views with a delegation of the Buddhist community at the party’s central office at Banani in the capital, the former President also observed, democracy must be continued in the country and change of the government will have to be made only through a free and fair election.“People will not accept change of the government by any other means,” he added.
Referring to the incident of attack on minority at Ramu, Ershad said that his party was deeply hurt by the incident and if JP would go to power, such incident would never take place in the country.
“A dangerous situation is prevailing in the country and the people of the country are facing serious miseries due to the activities of the two major parties. Now they want to get rid of these two parties and that is why JP intends to go to power through contesting in the election alone,” he said.
The delegation, led by Uttam Kumar Barua, met the JP Chief on the occasion of the Buddha Purnima.
