UNB, Dhaka :
Alleging that the government is trying to curb opposition parties by using arms, BNP senior leader ASM Hannan Shah on Friday said it is impossible for such a government to establish democracy in the country.
“The government has issued 7,000 licences of firearms to Chhatra League, Jubo League and Swechchhasebak League cadres. These arms are now being used frequently in different parts of the country. The government which uses arms to curb its opposition parties can never establish democracy in the country,” he said.
Hannan Shah came up with the remarks at a discussion organised by Zia Parishad at the Jatiya Press Club.
The BNP leader said the government will have to bear the responsibility of the killing of opposition leaders and innocent people using arms provided to the party men.
Observing that the country’s people no longer want to see this government in power, he said ministers and ruling party MPs are getting very depressed as they get people’s pulses when they visit their respective constituencies.
