'Communal forces trying to uprise under BNP's patronization'

Awami League (AL) General Secretary Obaidul Quader on Tuesday said the communal and militant forces are trying to rise again in the country under the leadership of BNP.

Quader said this after paying tributes to the language martyrs by placing floral wreaths at Azimpur graveyard on the occasion of Shaheed Dibash (Martyrs Day) and the International Mother Language Day.

"BNP is the home for communal-violence and militancy. Communal forces are working under the leadership of BNP. It is trying to create arson terrorism again," Quader, also Road Transport and Bridges Minister said.
