Finally BNP gets a venue

BNP is finally going to hold its 6th national council at the Institution of Engineers, Bangladesh in the city on March 19 as it has got the permission to use the venue, reports UNB. BNP joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi announced this at a press briefing at the Party's Nayapaltan central office yesterday. "We've got the permission from the authorities of three venues to hold our council. The authorities of Engineers Institute last night (Wednesday night) informed us in written we can use their venue for our council", he said. The BNP leader said though earlier they got permission from the Public Works Department to use Suhrawardy Udyan to hold their council, they will withdraw their applications in this regard. "We won't go to Suhrawardy Udyan. Now we'll start our preparation soon to hold our council at the Engineers' Institute," he added. BNP earlier alleged that the government was instrumental behind the delay in providing the party permission to hold  national council in its preferred venue. According to BNP leaders its first choice for the venue was Bangabandhu International Conference Centre.
