They called on her to quickly and firmly reorganise the party by placing honest, dedicated and tested leaders at the forefront. They also criticised the government for the latters submissive attitude to neighbouring India which is preparing to construct a multipurpose barrage across Barak River in Tipaimukh, which is upstream of Surma and Kushiara rivers of Bangladesh. ‘You need not pay heed to the judgment, if any, of the Supreme Court. You must take action against the person whom you believe to be corrupt, said BNPs joint secretary-general Mirza Abbas at a discussion held at the Institute of Diploma Engineers. ‘You have a tough time ahead as conspiracies are brewing in the party.
‘Why should you feel pity for us if we commit any offence when the Anti-Corruption Commission failed to prove that you are a corrupt person despite its all-out attempts? he questioned. Abbas and Gayeshwar urged Khaleda to identify the leaders whose loyalty to the BNP was unquestioned while reorganising the party. Gayeshwar said that many BNP members lack the ideals of Zia. ‘A genuine follower of Zia cannot be greedy for hundreds of mansions and cars. Khaledas adviser ASM Hannan Shah stressed the need for quick reorganisation of the party with a firm hand by placing honest, dedicated and tested leaders at the forefront. Chittagong city BNP convenor Syed Wahidul Alam, Juba Dal president Barkat Ullah Bulu and general secretary Syed Moazzem Hossain Alal stressed the need to keep the party free from conflicts of interest between the leaders. | ||
