Election roadmap to thwart all conspiracies: BNP

Once the roadmap for the next national election is announced, no one would dare to conspire anymore against Bangladesh, BNP told the interim government on Wednesday.

“We have told (the government) to implement a reform agenda very quickly and announce a roadmap for the election. If people get the roadmap and become election-oriented, no one will dare to hatch conspiracies that you are seeing now,” said BNP standing committee member Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain.

He was talking to reporters after a meeting between Chief Adviser Dr Muhammad Yunus and representatives from different political parties including BNP and Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami at the Foreign Service Academy in the capital.

Mosharraf said the responsibility of this interim government is to protect the country’s independence and sovereignty, and establish democracy.

He mentioned that everyone at the meeting agreed to unite against the conspiracies being hatched by the fallen government against the country from abroad.

“The fascist government was ousted through the July-August mass uprising. We all together — the students and people of this country — will also confront their conspiracies,” he said.
