Former BNP leader Nazmul Huda, a forceful advocate of talks between the Awami League and the BNP, sees no need for it now, saying Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina can solve “all problems”.
Huda, a former minister in a BNP-Jamaat-e-Islami government, said this while speaking at the national conference of the Society for the Enforcement of Human Rights (SEHR) organised in Dhaka on Saturday to mark its founding anniversary.
“I had asked the two leaders several times – you (Hasina) and Khaleda Zia
(BNP chief) – to sit for talks to resolve a crisis. I had said there was no alternative to talks to save the country,” he said.
But he now appeared to have changed his mind. “I want to say, with the members of the Society for the Enforcement of Human Rights as witnesses, that there is no need for talks or discussion,” he said.
“You (Hasina) alone can find solutions to all problems in the country. You will take decisions alone and get credit for it. There is no one else who can claim credit,” he added.
Huda praised Hasina’s leadership.
The former BNP vice chairman Huda had been sacked in June 2010 for breaching party discipline.
He had subsequently apologised and got his membership back in September 2011.
But he quit the party again in June 2014.
The former BNP stalwart has launched several parties and formed alliances.
