BNP needs change in leadership, says Hasan

Awami League Publicity and Publication Secretary Dr Hasan Mahmud yesterday said BNP would require new leadership to return the party to constructive politics, reports BSS. "We don't want to see BNP as a party of hurling petrol bombs and creating anarchy, we want a democratic and strong BNP . . . So the party needs the change in its leadership," he said while speaking at a discussion on Bangabandhu's Homecoming Day at the National Press Club in the capital. Hasan, also the former environment and forest minister, alleged that BNP along with communal forces started hatching conspiracies against the government and the state failing to face the Awami League politically. He called upon the BNP to severe ties with the anti-liberation forces in the greater interest of the country's democracy.
The AL leader said the BNP frequently issued threats against the government of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina through media as contrary to the absence of the party's leaders and workers on the streets. "BNP has no contacts with the people . . . The existence of the party would not be visible excepting mass media," Hasan observed.
Jatiya Ganatantrik League and NAP-Bhasani organised the discussion with NAP-Bhasani Chairman Abul Kalam Azad, MP, in the chair.
