UNB, Dhaka :
BNP senior leader Rafiqul Islam Miah on Sunday warned that Awami League will be held responsible if a 1975-like situation reappears in the country for not holding an inclusive national election.
“The 1975 incident won’t recur in the country. But, Awami League has to shoulder responsibility if a 1975-like situation is created again in the country for not arranging election with
the participation of all parties,” he said.
The BNP leader issued the warning while inaugurating a voluntary blood donation programme at the Jatiya Press Club arranged by Swadhinata Forum, marking the 33rd death anniversary of BNP founder and former President Ziaur Rahman.
Rafiqul, also a BNP standing committee member, alleged that the incident of killing, abduction and enforced disappearance marked a sharp rise as a pro-people government was not established in the country though a fair election. “The Prime Minister is solely responsible for it.”
