Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Sunday again ruled out the possibility of any talks with the BNP chief saying that this will be unproductive because Khaleda Zia will not accept it. “Will she (Khaleda) accept the dialogue? She won’t,” she said.

“What will be the result of holding dialogue with this lady?” the Prime Minister questioned further.
Referring to Khaleda’s stay in her Gulshan Office, Hasina said, “Why should she have to live in her office? Why is food served to the office? She is supposed to do her office job and leave the office after finishing daily tasks.”
Hasina questioned about the living of a huge number of people in Khaleda’s office. “Who are these people are there? Are they militants or terrorists? This should be looked into.”
The Prime Minister again termed the destructive activities of BNP-Jamaat alliance terrorist and militant acts.
Coming down heavily on Khaleda Zia for playing game with the fate of general people, the Prime Minister said: “The lives of the people of Bangladesh are not so cheap…we cannot let Khaleda Zia to play with the fate of the people of this country. She (Khaleda) is an insane and perverted person.”
