A discussion on current politics organised by Bangladesh Awami Muktijoddha Prajanma League was held at Dhaka Reporters’ Unity. Awami League Publicity and Publication Affairs Secretary Dr Hasan Mahmud was present as the chief guest in the programme held recently. While speaking Hasan said August 21 carnage would have been repeated in the country if BNP was in power. “If BNP was in power, the people would have fallen victims of atrocities and corruption of the party leaders,” he added. Hasan said BNP has become envious of Awami League government over the country’s achieving the eligibility for the developing country status. Because of their political vengeance, BNP leaders are now out to mislead people by giving false information, he added.
