UNB, Dhaka :
BNP is planning to announce a programme protesting the government’s move to restore parliament’s power to impeach Supreme Court judges.
“The party high command is thinking to announce action programmes against the government’s attempt to restore the power of removing judges by an unrepresentative parliament,” said BNP Dhaka city unit convener Mirza Abbas.
Talking to reporters at his Shahjahanpur residence, he also claimed that the 20-party’s two programmes, protesting Israeli offensive in
Gaza and national broadcast policy, in the city were very successful as huge people participated in those.
Abbas, also a BNP standing committee member, briefed the journalists about various issues relating to the formation of the new committee of the Dhaka city unit BNP and party’s movement plan.
He alleged that the ruling party leaders are instigating the opposition leaders and activists to indulge in violence in a bid to file more ‘false’ cases.
“The government is provoking BNP saying the party is giving soft action programmes as it has no capacity to wage a strong movement. They’re doing this so that they can file fresh cases against BNP leaders and activists by instigating them,” the BNP leader added.
Abbas said BNP will never throw violent programmes that Awami League had resorted to before the 1/11-changeover in 2007. “We’ve no intention to return to power by killing people. We want people to bring us back to power.”
Replaying to a question, he said they have made a good progress in making the committees of different units of the Dhaka city BNP.
“Our target is to make the Dhaka city BNP stronger and we’re working hard to this end. We’re organising it such a way so that we can move forward with a strong footing,” Abbas said.
As his attention was drawn to Awami League general secretary Syed Ashraful Islam’s comment that nothing will happen if Mirza Abbas stages a sit-in with 100 people, the BNP leader said, “I want to tell him allow me first to observe the sit-in with 100 people. You can see later what it actually yields!”
On July 18, a 52-member new convening committee of the Dhaka city unit BNP, led by Abbas, was formed asking it to constitute a full-fledged committee of the unit within two months.
