Former minister Nazmul Huda, who was expelled from the BNP, has again launched a new political party, ‘Bangladesh Manabadhikar Party’ or BMP.
The declaration came at a press briefing at his Topkhana road office yesterday.
Nazmul had earlier formed a party named Bangladesh Nationalist Front (BNF) and been expelled from his own brain child.
He had also formed a political alliance named Bangladesh National Alliance (BNA). The BMP will use the logo of BNA and its symbol is Golden Fibre.
The BNP-expelled leader said there exist two strong political alliances in the country, while the third alliance is Bangladesh National Alliance.
The newly-formed party will work as the key force of the alliance as the Awami League has been playing its as the key force of 14-Party Alliance and BNP as the key force of 20-Party Alliance, he said.
“I will bring all the human rights movement groups working in the country under this umbrella,” he added. His wife Sigma Huda heads Bangladesh Manabadhikar Bastabayan Sangstha.
He was asked whether he felt the need of advance election as BNP does, the BMP chief said his party does not feel so.
One of the BNP founders, Nazmul has the record of returning to BNP after having been expelled several times.
The former minister expressed his wish to return to the BNP last year, but he harshly criticised its policy yesterday.
Apparently indicating that the BNP is now following a violent policy, he said: I was with the BNP with my heart and soul when they maintained non-violent policy,”.
In the same breath, he again expressed his soft corner for the BNP, saying: “They are currently going through a perilous condition. The BNP is not on the way to carry out their announced movements.”
Nazmul also claimed that the eligible are refrained from the top positions of BNP, what made him to form this new political party.
