Opposition leaderŽs remarks on BDR mutiny were motivated: PM
 [Bangla Daily Star] Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today said in the House that Opposition Leader Khaleda Zia's remarks on the February 25-26 Pilkhana carnage were provocative and motivated. In her speech right after the speech of Khaleda Zia, the leader of the House said the people wanted to know whether the former PM wanted to spread a civil war in the country on failure to grab power.Hasina also raised question about the actual intention of the BNP chairperson behind such comments. "We have brought down prices of essentials in three months. Probably, many could not like it and that was why they were trying to create an anarchic situation in the country through various plots," she added. She said her government fulfilled its election pledges to restrain the skyrocketing prices of daily necessities. "We come to power pledging to curb the prices of the daily essentials and we fulfilled it," she told the parliament. The PM also thanked the opposition leader for not thanking former president Iajuddin Ahmed and her comments about Iajuddin were absolutely true. Posted by: 2009-04-08 |
