Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader has said Chhatra League's council will be held on December 6 instead of December 8 to ensure smooth holding of the BNP's December 10 rally.
Quader, also road transport and bridges minister, said this while addressing the tri-annual conference of his party's Pirojpur unit on Sunday. He joined the event virtually from his residence.
He said the decision was taken as per party chief and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's directive.
“The government will not obstruct BNP's December 10 rally, but if they try to play with fire and sticks, they will be given a befitting reply,” he said.
The politician said a Canada court declared BNP a militant organization. “They carry out arson in the name of movements.”
“It is not so easy to make a man the leader who fled the country signing a bond on condition of not doing politics,” said Quader.
Regarding the BNP's demand of a caretaker government, the Quader asked BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul to say in which country of the world there is a caretaker government. “It was your leader who said that no one is neutral except the mentally insane and children.”
He said the caretaker government is now banned by court and has gone obsolete.
He said all claims about a “human sea” went silent after the BNP's Comilla rally and they will see the same in the capital.
