Bangladesh Jatiya Party or BJP has left the BNP-led 20-Party alliance in a ‘fit of sulks’ which will be over ‘soon,’ said BNP Senior Joint Secretary Ruhul Kabir Rizvi.
“Politics in the country has been going through a bad phase. Some of the allies may become sulky during this phase. This will be over. Especially, the leaders from the bigger ally BNP and others will adopt measures to eliminate it,” Rizvi told the media in a press briefing on Wednesday.
BJP Chairman Andaleeve Rahman Partho announced they were leaving the coalition on Monday.
“(BNP) is doing nothing but expressing solidarity with the 20-Party Alliance’s activities,” Partho had lamented.
The BNP has “lost the moral right” to reject the results of the “farcical” elections and “vote robbery” by joining parliament, he had said.
The BJP chief had also accused the BNP of not letting its partners in the 20-Party Alliance know about its decision to join parliament.
Rizvi, on the other hand, remarked that the 20-Party alliance was united. “Our united programmes at all levels will be continuing, I can assure you of it,” he said during the press briefing.
Prof Shahida Rafique and Abul Khair Bhuiyan, members of the advisory council to the BNP chairperson, central leaders Munir Hossain, Mahbubul Haque Nannu, Khan Rabiul Islam Rabi, and President of the Sramik Dal Anowar Hossain were present in the event.
