Nasim slams TIB, Sujon

DHAKA: Health and Family Welfare Minister Mohammad Nasim on Thursday categorically said Transparency International Bangladesh (TIB), Susasoner Jonno Nagorik (Sujon) and some vested quarters are demanding interim polls to bring unelected government.

The health minister came up with the observation in a press conference after a meeting of the 14-party alliance at political office of Awami League president at Dhanmondi in the noon.

Mohammed Nasim, also presidium member of the party, said they would talk to grass root level leaders and activists of the party in April to make people aware about this plotting.

He said, “We have observed that TIB, Sujon and some other vested groups have expressed their concern over why government is not arranging general elections. The government tried their best to bring BNP in elections but they didn’t come rather they committed to vandalism and arson.”

“It is very clear to us why they are showing their interest within six months of elections,” he added.

AL senior leader also said: “None of them talked when people were burnt to death. The meaning of talking now is that they want to bring undemocratic government and anarchy in the country.”

He also said that the government would probe into their sources of money.

General Secretary of Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal (Jasad) Sharif Nurul Ambia, general secretary of Workers Party Anisur Rahman Malick, general secretary of Samyabadi Dal Dilip Barua, general secretary of Gonotantri Dal Nurur Rahman Selim, central convener of Communist Party Asit Baran Roy, secretary general of Tarikat Federation MA Awal, joint general secretary of AL Jahangir Kabir Nanak, organizing secretary Ahmed Hossain, office secretary Dr Abdus Sobhan Golap, deputy office secretary Mrinal Kanti Das, health affairs secretary Badiuzzaman Bhuiyan and member Sujit Roy Nandi were among others present.
