BNP’s 7-point demand unrealistic: Quader

The ruling Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader on Monday said the BNP's 7-point demands, which are unrealistic, are aimed at invigorating their party leaders and activists. He made these remarks while talking to journalists at Gulshan-2 kitchen market during the AL leaders and activists mass contact programme. The AL started the week-long mass contact programme across the country on Monday.
Before the beginning of the mass contact programme, a brief rally was held there. AL Joint General Secretary Dr Dipu Moni, Organising Secretary Barrister Mohibul Hassan Chowdhoury (Nowfel), International Affairs Secretary Dr Shammi Ahmed, Education and Human Resource Affairs Secretary Shamsunnahar Chapa, Central Working Committee members Anwar Hossain, Adv Riazul Kabir Kawser and Raymond Areng, Dhaka City North AL acting President Sheikh Bazlur Rahman and General Secretary Sadeq Khan, among others, were present.
"BNP's seven-point demands are unrealistic and unacceptable, and few are conflicting with the Constitution. Election is not so far. There is no scope to accept BNP's demand before the polls," Quader said and added, "BNP knows very well that they would not have implemented these demands if they were in power."
Quader said if any party wants to create anarchy in the name of political programme, law enforcement agencies will take necessary actions. Awami League leaders and workers along the people will resist BNP if it tries to unleash any violence in the country, he said.
As part of the week-long mass contact, four teams consisting central leaders and led by four joint general secretaries- Mahbubul Alam Hanif, Dr Dipu Moni, Jahangir Kabir Nanak and Abdur Rahman carry out campaign seeking vote for the boat symbol in the city.
