JP’s support to AL-backed GCC mayoral candidate not a mistake: Ershad

 

Jatiya Party chairman HM Ershad on Tuesday said that he did not make any mistake by extending his party’s support to Awami League-backed mayoral candidate of Gazipur City Corporation polls.

“You (party activist) don’t know what I know. You don’t see what I see. I didn’t make any mistake by extending support to the grand alliance-backed candidate in Gazipur election,” he said.

Addressing a conference of the party at a city hotel, Ershad also said he took the decision in the interest of the party. “This decision paves the way for Jatiya Party to go to power. You (party men) can’t understand the benefit now, but will realise it in due time.”

The JP chief, however, said he consciously took the decision on his own, not under any pressure from any quarter.

The former military ruler also said he will not allow his JP to be used by any party as a staircase to go to power.

Ershad observed that the main reason behind the defeats of Awami League-supported candidate is Shabagh Chattar. “This Shahbagh Chattar has divided the nation. Hefajat has been created because of Shahbagh.”
