DHAKA, Apr 8, 2021 (BSS) â Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader today said BNP needs âpolitical isolationâ now as the party is infected with a more dangerous virus than coronavirus.
âThe BNP is infected with a more deadly virus than coronavirus, whose symptoms are negativity, falsehood, conspiracy and arson terrorism. The BNP now needs political isolation,â he told a press conference at his official residence here.
Quader, also the road transport and bridges minister, said people think that the adverse impacts of the virus is rooted in BNP.
âBNP is doing the politics of shame over the coronavirus. They once say that lockdown has to be given and they say again if the lockdown is enforced, what will the people eat? The BNPâs double standard policy and ill-politics over COVID-19 are making people confused,â he said.
