PM urges party men to have patience for peaceful polls
DHAKA, Dec 26, 2018 (BSS) – Prime Minister and Awami League (AL) President Sheikh
Hasina today came down heavily on the Jatiya Oikyafront (JOF) for its terrosrist acts
and ugly attitude, urging the AL leaders and workers not to step into their (JOF)
provocation.
“The people don’t want to see the BNP-Jamaat in power. Knowing this, they are trying
to commit various terrorist activities. They have already killed our five leaders and
workers and torched our offices at different places of the country,” she said.
The premier added: Few days are left for elections. So I would like to request our
leaders and workers to have patience. The BNP-Jamaat will do provocative work as
committing terrorism is their character.”
The Awami League chief was addressing election rallies in Chandpur, Kushtia and
Naogaon districts through a videoconference from her Sudha Sadan residence at Dhanmondi
here this afternoon.
The prime minister also called on her party leaders and workers to have patience for
peaceful holding of the elections and to thwart any attempt of the BNP-Jamaat to foil
the polls in any way.
“As we know we will win the polls and serve the people by forming the government
again. So we will have to keep patience so that the elections are held peacefully and
the BNP-Jamaat cannot foil the polls,” she said.
