Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader said that the BNP should take lessons from the statements made by Pakistan`s prime minister regarding Bangladesh`s development.
Quader stated that Pakistan appreciates Bangladesh`s development, while the BNP indulges in falsehoods and propaganda against the government`s development efforts.
"Today, Pakistan`s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif feels ashamed when he sees the progress and achievements of Bangladesh," Quader said while talking to reporters at a press conference on Friday.
Quader also commented that Bangladesh is progressing well in terms of democracy and elections without the involvement of the BNP.
He stated that the upcoming upazila (sub-district) elections will be conducted fairly, and Awami League will neither support nor oppose the BNP`s participation.
Quader also warned that if the BNP violates party directives during the upazila elections, appropriate organizational measures will be taken in due time.
