BNP standing committee member MK Anwar on Sunday said the prevailing environment of the Parliament does not support the discussion of the election-time government. “We want formal dialogue to be held with the government to resolve the prevailing political impasse. There is no environment to discuss poll-time government in Parliament,” he said while addressing a meeting at the National Press Club. The BNP leader said, a debate over the election-time government can be held in the House, but discussions on it should be held in a formal way.
\nHe said BNP would participate in the discussion if the ruling Awami League (AL) places a bill in parliament on restoration of the non-party caretaker government based on understanding. “We will also assist the ruling party in passing the bill,” he added.
\nMK Anwar alleged that the ruling party leaders have been making contradictory statements to mislead the people.
\nHe also called the ruling AL to make their position clear about the next general election.
\nBNP chairperson’s adviser Joynal Abedin said when the movement for caretaker administration to oversee the next polls took a final shape, the government brought the issue of Tarique Rahman in front row.
\nHe said Tarique, being a celebrated figure, will return home victorious not through Interpol.
\nDhaka based Barisal Divisional Jatiyatabadi Juba Forum organised the meeting protesting the issuance of a warrant for the arrest of BNP senior vice-chairman Tarique Rahman.
\nPresided over by the president of the organisation, the meeting was also addressed, among others, by Iqbal Rashid Apu, BNP vice chairman Altaf Hossain Chowdhury and Jubo Dal president Syed Moazzem Hossain Alal, Abdus Salam Azad and Mir Newaz Ali Newaz.<\/p>\n
