Quit before time runs out, Fakhrul to govt

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has told the government to resign before time runs out and hand over power to the caretaker government.

"Step down before time runs out and dissolve parliament. Hand over power to caretaker government and by forming a new election commission through them, establish the people's parliament through elections," he said.

Fakhrul said this in a rally at Nayapaltan in capital Dhaka on Saturday afternoon.

Jatiyatabadi Jubo Dal organized the program protesting the killing of Jubo Dal activist Shaon in Munshiganj police-BNP clashes.

People of the country will no longer tolerate gunning down of people, he warned the government.

The BNP leader also urged all political parties and people to make a fierce mass movement unitedly to defeat the fascist government.
