JP’s importance growing: Ershad

Jatiya Party Chairman HM Ershad on Saturday claimed that the importance of Jatiya Party in national politics has increased because of its sensible role.

 

“Jatiya Party’s importance has increased in national politics as we didn’t take any whimsical decision in the past,” he said while addressing a representatives meeting of the party’s greater Dhaka district unit at city’s Banani Rajuk ground.

 

Ershad rejected the hearsay of a meeting between opposition leader Khaleda Zia and him in Singapore. “It’s baseless…but what’s the fault if any meeting takes place between us? In the present political culture, it’s a fault to see each other face. We’ll have to come out of this culture. Why should I hold a meeting playing hide and seek.”

 

The former military ruler observed that the politics of vengeance started through oppression on Jatiya Party when the party left power in 1990. “During that five years, we couldn’t hold any rally… even I was not allowed to sit in parliament,” he recalled.

 

Ershad also said it is the democratic norm that one government will go and anther will come. “Then what’s the reason to be afraid of. The reason is you’re afraid of leaving power due to the politics of vengeance.”|

 

He lamented that nobody staged protest when he had been sent to jail during two caretaker regimes. “Now it’s being said if a caretaker government comes again, top leaders will land in jail.”

 

Ershad said the people of the country did not accept when a blogger was given bail for undermining the great Prophet (pbuh) and a Buet teacher was handed seven years’ jail for making derogatory remarks against the Prime Minister.

 

The Jatiya Party chief attributed the fall of popularity of the present government to terrorism, ransom seeking and tender manipulation by Jubo League and Chhatra League men.

 

“When I had declared to join the grand alliance, Chhatra League leaders said they would sacrifice their lives for me. But then why have they got derailed? Who are responsible for this?”

  1. As usual a desperate Hasina abandoned by “JONOGON”crying Wolf:
    “HER HUSBAND KILLED MY FATHER, HER SON WANTED TO KILL ME”!!!
    General Ershad the longest serving HEAD OF STATE, now a member of Hasina’s 14 party alliance could be sued by Hasina for”CAPTURING POWER ILLEGALLY” if he dares to abandon Hasina to her fate by leaving the alliance at the most crucial time in Hasina’s life!!! She made a wild allegation in parliament that Begum Khaleda, twice the elected prime minister wanted to kill Hasina by her son Tariq.
    Hasina’s ADVISERS might as well tell her to file 23 cases of corruption against General Ershad so that he could be declared unfit to contest election by an Executive controlled, highly politicised and thoroughly corrupt Bangla judiciary that being used by Hasina as a political tool to smash her political opponents.

    MEDIA COMPLAINING ABOUT THE TENDER TRADE KILLING OF THE CHATRA LEAGUE & JUBO LEAGUE
    “JATIR PITAR” Frankenstein Monsters are so powerful, they have been for the last 4.5 years running a parallel government of their own. There is no power to tame these heavily armed thugs. Hasina is not stupid to put her like at risk trying to control them. Carrying the picture of “JATIR JONOK” and shouting , ” WE ARE THE SURYA SATAN” of the father of the nation want to hang the war criminals so that ” THE SOUL: OF THE FATHER OF THE NATION CAN REST IN PEACE” they can do anything. And, they have been doing so. (2)-

    CUTTING OF WORKING HOURS DURING THE MONTH OF RAMADAN RAISED PROTEST IN BANGLADESH. SOME SAY THIS COULD BE AGAINST THE SECULAR CONSTITUTION:
    Fakir Altaf Hussain: Boga:25.06.2013. Bangladesh communist party, Workers party & the United association of Hindu, Buddha, Christian have asked the government why “CUTTING WORKING TIMES TO THE TUNE OF MILLIONS OF WORKING HOURS for Ramadan nation has to suffer the loss in a secular Bangladesh while people of other religion do not get any such privileged treatment at Treasury’s expense. This could create conflict with the constitution. Observers say, Hasina’s SPECIAL ADVISER ON CONSTITUTIONAL MATTER Surenjit Sengupta and Kangaroo court prosecutor Rana Dasgupta, a leader of the above named communal organisation initiated this comment., Al-Hilal tried to contact them but none answered the telephone call.

    The fact remains: IF & WHEN GENERAL ELECTION COMES JATIO PARTY WOULD BE THE KINGMAKER
    (1) Gen Ershad is the longest serving head of the state (2) His sagacious policy removed the chances of the enemies to take Chittagong Hill out of Bangladesh (3) By declaring Islam as our state religion Jatio Party has put the seal of our INDEPENDENT EXISTENCE AS A MUSLIM STATE in a very firm basis, no other party has shown courage to take such a bold step to strengthened the very base of our INDEPENDENCE. During Jatio Party’s long reign it listened to the people outside the party and that has made the party a popular one. J.P’s Islamic credential can never be matched by anti-Islamic Awamis and secularist BNP. If & when the next General Election comes Jatio Party would be the king-maker, there is no mistake about that if it comes out of Hasina’s sari’s protection that is absolutely suffocation and mostly injurious to political health for any matured politician. (4) General Ershad’s one salvo knocked the apostate bloggers out of the arena. (4)
