‘BNP speaking in the language of conflict’

The BNP is speaking in the language of conflict, instead of politics, said Communications Minister Obaidul Quader yesterday.

“They have resorted to the violence, failing to involve people in their movement,” he told reporters during a visit to the BRTA’s Savar office.

“We won’t respond in the language of arms. Rather, legal action will be taken (against them),” he said.

The BNP itself was perpetrating abductions, killing and enforced disappearance in a bid to bail itself out of troubled waters, he alleged. While visiting the BRTA office, the minister suspended two persons, including Shaukat Iqbal, an inspector at the office.
