BNP Standing Committee Member Khandakar Mosharraf Hossain on Wednesday urged Speaker Shirin Sharmin Choudhury to advise the government to come forward with proposal for dialogue to resolve the political crisis.
“On Thursday in a programme the speaker said the problem could be settled in parliament through dialogue. I want her to ask the government to hold dialogue if she wants a solution,” he said.
Addressing a discussion at the Jatiya Press Club in the capital organised by the Shikkhak Karmachari Oikya Jote Mosharraf said they had had heard such type of call many times.
“If the government does not agree to hold the next election under a non-partisan government then the solution will not come.”
The BNP leader said: “BNP will not take part in any election if it is held under the government and keeping the parliament functional.”
Mosharraf said as they had a few number of seats in parliament their proposal was dismissed in the House.
“So, to resolve the crisis advice the government to hold the dialogue and amend the constitution before the parliament session ends,” he urged the speaker.
In the programme, the organisation unveiled the panel members of the senate election.
In the senate election the BNP panel includes AFM Yusuf Hayder, Abdul Jalil Aziz, Umme Kulsum Rawjatur Rumman, AKM Rafiqunnabi, ABM Fazlul Karim, ABM MOsharraf Hossain, SM Asaduzzaman Ripon, KA Amiruzzaman, Chowdhury Mahmud Hasan, Nasirudddin Ahmed, Provat Chandra Biswas, Mahfuzullah, Mohammad Rafiqul Kabir, Shafiul Bari Babu, Selim Bhuyan and Mohammad Hasan.
The former teacher of Dhaka University alleged that voters were not getting voter card.
“I am a life-time member of the university senate but I am yet to get the voter card. Like me many are yet to get their cards,” he alleged.
