Information and Broadcasting Minister Dr Hasan Mahmud said that the great quality of BNP Secretary General

“Fakrul then told a press conference that he didn’t write any letter. When we showed the copy of that letter to journalists and handed it over to the media representatives then BNP did not give any reply,” he added.

“As a politician, I am really ashamed to see and hear that a party secretary general can lie in this way,” Hasan said.

The minister stated these as the chief guest while addressing the Bangladesh Journalists’ Welfare Trust cheque distribution ceremony today at Bangabandhu Hall of Chattogram Press Club (CPC) in the city.

Dr.Hasan said that the political party which believes in changing of power with the verdict of the people through elections or the political party which has to sustain with the support of the people cannot last without elections. “The mistake that the BNP is making like their suicide, that’s all I can say,” he added.

Dr. Hasan also joint general secretary of the Awami League said the government had formed a search committee to form a strong election commission.

“When mangoes are ripen in the trees people throw stones. But criticism should not be like the blind and the deaf. As well as criticism and good work should also be praised.
