Jatiya Party Chairman HM Ershad has ordered his party’s ministers and
advisor to resign from ‘all-party’ cabinet, a day after he announced
boycott of general elections.
He gave out the directive while speaking to reporters after a meeting
with Indian Foreign Secretary Sujatha Singh at his house at Banani on
Wednesday.
“It is my final word that I won’t go to polls. Withdraw your
nomination papers if you have filed them,” said Ersahd.
“And those who are in the all-party cabinet, I am urging them to
resign,” he said.
The party has four ministers, two state ministers in the cabinet led
by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. There is also a Prime Minister’s
Advisor from his party.-bdnews24.com
