BSS, Dhaka :
Spokesman of the Awami League-led 14-party alliance and Health and Family Welfare Minister Mohammad Nasim on Friday said tough legal action would be taken against those who want to grab state power through unconstitutional means.
“People of the country would protect the culture introduced for change in power through polls in Bangladesh at any cost,” he said.
Mohammad Nasim, also a member of Awami League (AL) presidium, said this emerging from a meeting of the 14-party alliance at the political office of AL president Sheikh Hasina at Dhanmondi in the city.
The senior Awami League leader said, “As she has now become frustrated BNP chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia has turned the meaning of action programmes like siege and hartal into a fiasco by killing people and destructive activities in the name of movement.”
“As she was so disgusted Begum Khaleda Zia didn’t even attend the immortal Martyrs Day (Ekushey) at the central Shaheed Minar,” he said adding: “We have to wait a few days more to witness the miserable fate she (Begum Zia) has been going to embrace.”
Mohammad Nasim said, “Begum Zia has appeared now as a leader of firebombs (petrol bombs) and a leader of murderers. They have now been trying to instigate the armed forces in public.”
About the 14-party alliance’s earlier announced peace road marches throughout the country on March 8, 9 and 10, its spokesman said, “Split into four teams, the central leaders of the alliance shall make successful the marches and public rallies at various places across the country from March 8 to March 10.”
He said the first team will take part in the programme in Sirajganj, Bogra and Gaibandha districts, the second team in Gazipur, Manikganj and Munshiganj districts, the third team in Chittagong, Noakhali and Feni districts while the fourth team in Kushtia, Jhenidah and Jessore districts.
Strongly condemning the brutal killing of rising writer and software engineer Avijit Roy, who was chopped to death by unknown assailants, on Dhaka University campus on Thursday night, the minister demanded expeditious nabbing of the killers and their exemplary punishment.
