BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Saturday placed a number of proposals before the interim government seeking urgent steps to address their concerns, including former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s stay in India, news agency UNB reports.
Fakhrul said they drew the interim government’s attention to Sheikh Hasina’s activities from India and urged the government to discuss the matter with the Indian government.
He made the remarks while talking to reporters after BNP’s dialogue with Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus at the Chief Adviser’s official residence Jamuna.
The interim government began the fresh round of dialogue with major political parties to further seek their opinions as it proceeds with six reform commissions.
The BNP secretary general led a six-member party delegation at the talks to discuss reform and other relevant issues, including the current political situation.
BNP standing committee members Dr Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain, Mirza Abbas, Nazrul Islam Khan, Dr Abdul Moyeen Khan and Salahuddin Ahmed were among the members of the BNP delegation.
Mirza Fakhrul said some bureaucrats, police officials and ministers are reportedly fleeing the country and they wanted to know how they are fleeing and who are assisting them to flee.
The senior leader of the party said they laid emphasis on appointing fit and neutral candidates in key posts, cancellation of contractual appointments and ensure promotion of deprived officials.
He said there has been no change in the High Court Division and sought steps for removal of party-affiliated judges.
Fakhrul said they also raised the CHT issue and urged the government to look into it seriously and find out people responsible for creating instability in the CHT.
He alleged that different offices and departments are not cooperating with the UN team which is visiting Bangladesh.
