UNB, Dhaka :
Observing that democracy cannot be established by hurling petrol bombs, Jatiya Party chairman HM Ershad on Wednesday said the politics of killing may kill the politics itself.
“What’s going on in the name of politics can never be considered politics. This is ill and evil politics. Democracy cannot be established by hurling petrol bombs. Politics of killing kills the politics itself. Such politics must be stopped,” he said.
HM Ershad came up with the observations while addressing the Biennial Council-2015 of the Dhaka (south) city unit of Jatiya Jubo Sanghati, the youth wing of Jatiya Party (Ershad) at Institution of Diploma Engineers, Bangladesh (IDEB, in the city. He said, “The people of the country are now afraid of moving outside at night. Even I’m afraid of going to my party office at night. Is this an independent country? Is this a democracy?” “If hartal and blockade are only to go to power, we are not with hartal and blockade programmes,” he said adding that if such politics continues people will forget and hate politicians.
The Jatiya Party chief urged political parties to refrain from evil politics, and called on people to resist and be aware of evil politics. Jatiya Party secretary general Ziauddin Ahmed Bablu, its presidium members Anisul Islam Mahmud, Syed Abul Hossain Babla and Mujibul Haque Chunnu also spoke on the occasion.
