Awami League (AL) General Secretary Obaidul Quader on Wednesday said no election under the caretaker government will ever be held in the country.
"BNP is shedding crocodile tears for the elections under the caretaker government instead of working for the people....But, according to the constitution, the general elections will be held under the incumbent government," he said.
Quader, also the road transport and bridges minister, said this while attending the tri-annual conference of the Dhamrai Upazila unit of AL held on the premises of Dhamrai Hardinge Government High School and College in Savar from his official residence in the capital through video conference as the chief guest.
He hoped that BNP would participate in the next general elections as the
existence of the BNP is on the verge of extinction.
Issuing a note of warning, he said if anyone tries to create arson attacks in
the country, they will not be spared.
