Dhaka: Apparently pointing at the next general election, BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia on Tuesday hoped that repression and oppressors will disappear from the country in 2018 as it will be the year of people.
“We believe the year 2018 will be the year of the country's people, and the repression and coercers will be removed from the country,” he said.
Khaleda came up with the remarks while speaking at an iftar party arranged by Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), a component of the BNP-led 20-party alliance, at Ladies' Club in the city's Eskatan area.
The BNP chief came down hard on the government for what she said its failure to maintain law and order and control the soaring prices of essentials. “The law and order is gradually deteriorating while the prices of essentials are continuously shooting up.”unb
