Awami League leader Mohammad Nasim has asked Khaleda Zia, the Leader of the Opposition, to resign from her post.He said this on Tuesday, a day after the BNP demanded the Prime Minister’s resignation as a step to solving the current crisis over the formation of a non-party government.
“The Leader of the Opposition has enjoyed all the benefits of Parliament but attended the sessions only for a few days. She should resign for ignoring parliament,” Nasim said.
The ministers submitted their resignation letters to the Prime Minister on Monday to kick start the formation of an all-party interim government to conduct polls.
BNP Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi had said on Monday the nation was waiting for the Prime Minister’s resignation.
Awami League leader Nasim said, “Why should she resign? She is an elected Prime Minister. She has been elected with an absolute majority; there is no question of her resignation.”
