Obaidul Quader, general secretary of the Awami League (AL) and Minister of Road Transport and Bridges, said today that making politics centered on anti-Indian and religious sentiments was the BNP’s old strategy.
“The BNP is a political party centered on rumours. Lying following the strategy of Goebbels (German Nazi politician) is their only weapon,” he told a press conference at his official residence. here.
Noting that these BNP strategies have become blunt weapons, Quader said the BNP now uses a “religion card” that the Awami League never does.
He said the BNP’s call to ban the government reveals the party’s inconclusive policy.
Any responsible political party with the minimum level of commitment to the country and the people cannot make such comments, he said.
He said the BNP’s policy is similar to the proverb “Make way for your own destroyer”.
The Minister said that when the BNP was in power they kept the less democratic country behind the mask of democracy and now they want to walk the same path.
The BNP blindly criticizes the government all the time and holds meetings, he said.
On the contrary, they say they have no right to speak, he said, adding that the BNP has made forgery an art.
The BNP wants to lead the country down an undemocratic path, make it a safe haven for terrorism and militancy and propagate a politics of communal hatred, he said.
