BNP-Jamaat is an alliance of killers, don't vote for them: PM Hasina at London reception

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has once again urged the people  not to vote for BNP-Jamaat nexus in the next general election as they will just ruin the country.

“They (BNP-Jamaat) will just destroy the country, nothing else. So, make it sure that BNP-Jamaat must not come to power again,” she said.

The prime minister made the call on Sunday while addressing a civic reception accorded to her by Bangladeshi expatriates in the UK at London Marriott Hotel.

She said that BNP-Jamaat alliance is just a bunch of killers, thieves and corrupts.

“So people should remain cautious and must not cast their votes for them,” she said.

 Hasina, the chief of the ruling Awami League, expressed hope that people of the country will give their verdict in favour of Awami League in the next general election.

“Inshallah people will vote for us in the next election to setve them one more time,” she said.

She said that BNP-Jamaat nexus siphoned off money and put the country on the verge of destruction.

“How could people cast their votes for them,” she wondered.

She said that Tarique Rahman (BNP vice chairman) has been convicted of corruption and the government has been able to bring back some Tk 40 crore that was smuggled by Koko ( late son of BNP leader Khaleda Zia).

Reiterating her determination to build a developed and prosperous Bangladesh, Hasina said, “Bangladesh will be a smart Bangladesh by 2041. We have formulated Delta 2100 plan. We have to take the country forward.”

She said that there will be no homeless, landless people in the country.

“Awami League works for the welfare of people. No person in Bangladesh will remain without food," she said.

Criticising BNP leaders including Tarique , the PM said, "Today, where do you get the courage to call us vote thieves?"

She said that Tarique Zia was a vote thief, and his mother ( Khaleda Zia) too.

PM Hasina said that Awami League did not come to power by rigging the votes of the people.
