The Awami League-led 14-party alliance will maintain its stand regarding the dialogue with the BNP-led 20-party alliance, said Health and Family Welfare Minister Mohammed Nasim in Dhaka yesterday.
“There will be no dialogue with razakars, killers and petrol bomb throwers. The next general elections will be held as per the schedule,” said Nasim, an AL presidium member.
Addressing a public rally organised by the 14-party alliance as chief guest, Nasim said no amount of conspiracies would benefit the BNP-Jamaat alliance.
The 14-party alliance organised the public rally “in protest of BNP-Jamaat combine’s nationwide political programmes since January 6. Split into four groups, the central leaders of the alliance joined the march in four areas on the first day of the three-day programme.
Speaking at another rally in Manikganj, Agriculture Minister Matia Chowdhury accused BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia of manslaughter and arson.
