Talks with BNP if it leaves Jamaat: HT Imam

 

Prime Minister’s political adviser HT Imam on Wednesday said the government will sit in dialogue with BNP if the party shuns the path of violence and parts the company of Jamaat-e Islami.

 

He came up with the remark while talking to reporters at the Election Commission Secretariat on Wednesday evening.

 

Asked about Khaleda Zia’s call for arrangement of immediate dialogue, HT Imam said, “BNP will have to come up with a specific proposal, shun violence and leave the association of Jamaat-Shibir, and gain the confidence of people. Then the decision for sitting in negotiations could be taken.”

 

An Awami League delegation, led by HT Imam, also co-chairman of the AL Election Conducting Committee, went to the EC Secretariat on the eve of Thursday’s re-voting in seven constituencies.

 

PM’s economic adviser Dr Moshiur Rahman and member of the AL election conducting committee ABM Reazul Kabir Kawsar were among the delegation members.
