‘There are some problems there, including the damages of strike and sabotage. We cannot deny it. Economic crisis may arise in the days to come. Our leader prime minister Sheikh Hasina has already taken initiatives to tackle the situation,’ he said while responding to a question on possible economic crisis and the government’s preparation for it at a briefing at the AL president Sheikh Hasina’s political office in the capital.

He said that they would take necessary steps considering the situation.

He said that none would be able to stop the voter turnout and the January 7 general election.
