Awami League General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader on Friday said BNP is doing evil politics capitalizing on the sufferings of people caused due to the world crisis.
"Without understanding the reality of the world crisis caused by the Russia-Ukraine war, the leaders and workers of BNP are making evil attempts politically capitalizing on the sufferings of the people," he said, reports BSS.
The incumbent AL leader said these in a statement protesting BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir's misleading, baseless and politically-motivated remarks.
Noting that the ongoing crisis caused by the Russia-Ukraine war is global, he said all the countries across the globe are dealing with this crisis and looking for ways to get rid of it if the crisis deepens in the days to come.
Responding to the demand of BNP Secretary General Fakhrul over the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina for this reason (crisis), Quader asked him:" Will the prime ministers of all the countries across the globe resign for the ongoing crisis?
"Although this global crisis is not caused by us, it has affected the country as Bangladesh is not an isolated island," he said.
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, the worthy daughter of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, advised the countrymen to take precautionary measures in advance alongside producing more food in the country as the World Bank is thinking that the global recession would occur in the next year, he added.
In response to BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir's another statement that the government will fall through the movement, Quader said that for more than a decade, BNP General Secretary has been saying this to cheer up their disappointed leaders and activists.
