Savar – Communications Minister Obaidul Quader on Saturday said BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia’s claim over killings and forced disappearances of 300 leaders and activists of her party and its allies is irresponsible.“BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia claimed that around 300 members of the 19-party alliance have either been killed or made disappeared in last one month. Her claim against an elected and successful government is dangerous and irresponsible,” he said.
The minister was talking to reporters while visiting the occupied land of Roads and Highways Department on Dhaka-Aricha Highway here.
As BNP did not take part in the election, its leaders are now spreading misleading information out of frustration.
“The presentation of the imaginary incidents of killings and forced disappearance without authentic information by the former opposition leader is irresponsible,” he said.
The minister said the BNP chief could not mention the names of even five victims. “If BNP can submit a list of the victims, then action will be taken after investigations,” he added.- UNB
