Earlier, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina hinted her party’s rank and file that she would go for a tougher action against party men who indulged in corruption and misdeeds.
“I have taken action against Chhatra League and Jubo League. I won’t spare anyone,” she was quoted as saying when acting Chhatra League president Al Nahian Khan Joy and general secretary Lekhak Bhattacharya met her at Gono Bhaban last night.
The drive against the corrupt people would continue, she said, adding that it would be difficult but she would soldier on.
During the meeting Hasina cautioned leaders of pro-AL bodies not to do anything that tarnishes the party’s image and hampers the country’s development.
