BNP standing committee member Barrister Moudud Ahmed said, the last time to change this government has come. Change will happen in Bangladesh’s politics soon.

He said this at a view exchange meeting organized by ‘Nagorik Odhikar Andolon Forum’ at the National Press Club on Friday.

Moudud Ahmed said, we all know that who originated attack on US Ambassador in the capital. Nobody was arrested in that incident. 800 crore taka was stolen from Bangladesh Bank, nobody was arrested, gold turned into silver and copper, no one was arrested, over one lakh tons of coals were vanished, nobody was arrested. Seeing all it seems that there is no government in the country. These will not happen if there is government.

About the proposed Road Transport Act the BNP leader said, the government has done a political cheating. Students demanded death penalty for killing. But what was in the previous law, no change was done there. One change was-the punishment was raised from three years to five years and if the killing is proved then death penalty. The government has done this type of cheating with the quota reformists.

Criticizing the Election Commission Moudud said, Chief Election Commissioner is a subservient of the government. With stimulation of conscience he told us truly that there is no guarantee of holding the next election free from irregularities. We have seen on the newspapers that after the speech other Commissioners expressed contradictory statements. After that the Chief Election Commissioner has no right to hold his position. We demand his resignation within a short time.

The program was presided over by the Advisor of the organization Sayeed Ahmed Aslam where BNP Vice Chairman Shawkat Mahmud, Joint Secretary General Syed Moazzem Hossain Alal and other were present.
