UNB, Dhaka :
National Democratic Party (NDP) chairman Golam Mortauza Khandaker on Wednesday said his party is with the BNP-led 20-party alliance though a vested quarter is constantly conspiring to split the combine.
“A deep conspiracy is being hatched against our party. Despite the local and international plots, we’ve made our party’s stance clear. NDP was with the 20-party alliance under its leader Khaleda Zia. It’s still with the 20-party and will remain so in the future,” he told a press conference.
Mortauza held the press conference at NDP’s Paltan office in the wake of his party’s another faction’s threat to quit the BNP-led alliance.
Earlier on Saturday, a faction of NDP, led by Alamgir Majumder, gave BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia a 72-hour ultimatum to meet its five-point demand, including ‘more democratic practice’ within the BNP-led coalition.
Alamgir, who was NDP secretary general, said the party presidium members at a meeting on September 12 expelled its chairman Golam Mortauza Khandaker and made him acting chairman of the party while presidium member Ali Nur Rahman acting secretary general.
Mentioning that no party secretary general can remove the party chief as per the constitution, Mortauza said they have expelled Alamgir from the post of party secretary general as he is a government agent and for breaching party discipline.
“Those who are plotting to spilt the party and alliance they are now nobody of the NDP. The conspirators have already been expelled from the party at an emergency meeting,” the NDP chief said.
He claimed that an evil quarter has long been trying to split the opposition alliance and said no conspirator will be able to divide the alliance.
