UNB, Dhaka :
BNP senior leader Abdullah Al Noman on Sunday alleged that the government has intensified its repressive acts as its days are numbered.
“This autocratic government has increased its repressive acts on BNP leaders and activists and common people. Sticks and teargas are the main weapons of the current regime like Ershad, Ayub
Khan to suppress people,” he said.
Speaking at a human chain programme, the BNP leader further said, “All governments turn autocrat at the end of its rule, and Awami League is also walking into the same path as they can realise their days are numbered.” Jatiyatabadi Muktijoddha Dal arranged the programme in front of the Jatiya Press Club, demanding BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia’s release from jail. Noman, a BNP vice chairman, said the government is now defying the Constitution to cling to power.
“Instead of upholding the Constitution, the government is violating it, and repressing people.” He alleged that the government has ruined the country’s economy through widespread corruption and plundering.
