BNP have to take part in next polls: Hanif

Awami League Joint General Secretary Mahbub-ul-Alam Hanif on Saturday said BNP will have to take part in the next general election abiding by the constitution.“The next election will be held under the Election Commission as per the constitution and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will remain as the head of government during the polls,” he told the reporters before addressing a meeting at Upazila Komlapur High School ground here.AL District Unit President Sadar Uddin Khan, General Secretary Azgor Ali and Jubo League district unit convener Rabiul Islam, among others, were present.“Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina had urged all parties to take part in the 10th parliamentary election. Even, she called BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia to take part in the election... but they didn’t,” he said.Hanif said BNP will make another mistake if the party does not take part in the next election. “I think BNP would not repeat the same mistake that they made in 10th parliamentary election,” he added.Source: BSS
