BNP's Politics Is in Deep Crisis: Quader

Awami League General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader on Tuesday said BNP's politics is in deep crisis now as the party is getting isolated from the people day by day after failing in elections, by-elections and movements.

''In the way BNP is getting isolated from the people, failing in polls and by-polls and the people are boycotting them, it is actually a severe crisis period for BNP,'' he told a discussion marking the 74th birthday of Prime Minister and AL President Sheikh Hasina.

Sheikh Russel Jatiyo Shishu-Kishore Parishad arranged the discussion and distribution ceremony of Bangabandhu’s autobiographic book 'The Unfinished Memoirs' among children and juvenile. Quader joined it virtually from his official residence on parliament premises.

About BNP's secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir's comment that the country is going through a crisis period, the minister said coronavirus pandemic created a global crisis and the developed countries are also facing severe trouble in facing the situation.

With limited resources, Bangladesh is making its all-out strides to face the crisis, he said, adding that though the initiatives of the government of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in facing the crisis have been lauded at home and abroad, a political party (BNP) is continuously making criticism to this end.
