Taking a dig at the Prime Minister, BNP on Sunday alleged that Sheikh Hasina has boarded a hired Indian train having failed to catch a Bangladesh train.

 

“The Prime Minister has failed to catch a train of Bangladesh Railways (BR) to have journey with the country’s people. Finally, she has been on a hired Indian train the guards, TTs and speakers of which have no link with our people,” said BNP joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi.

 

At a press briefing at BNP’s Nayapaltan Central office, the BNP leader came up with the sharp reaction to the Prime Minister’s remark that BNP has boarded the upazila-polls train after missing the January-5 election train.

 

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, addressing a public rally in Rajshahi’s Sarda on Saturday, said ‘Golapi’ (Khaleda) is now riding the upazlia train, having missed the train for the national election.”

 

Emphasising that BNP boards only people’s train, Rizvi threatened that they together with the country’s people will drive away the Indian train through a vigorous movement.

 

He alleged that the law enforcers are harassing the BNP-backed upazila election candidates to create panic among the BNP supporters.

 

Rizvi said the law enforcers are arresting the BNP candidates, filing ‘false’ cases against them so that they cannot win the polls.

 

Condemning the law enforcers’ action, Rizvi warned the government that people are preparing at every house for staging a mass upsurge to oust this regime.

 

Criticising the joint forces for what he said killing opposition leaders and activists in the name of crossfire, the BNP leader said the brutality by the current joint forces has outshined that of Rakhkhi Bahini in 1975.
