BNP worried as graft cries sharpen against Khaleda, Tarique
2007-02-22
The BNP high command is trying to revitalise leaders and workers, who have virtually lost morals having seen the magnitude of corruption by a number of powerful leaders of the party and its front organisation. Sources said party leaders' worry is also growing with corruption allegations against party chief Khaleda Zia and her son Tarique Rahman getting stronger day by day. This will cause among the leaders and workers a serious loss of confidence in the party leadership, they said.

A few BNP leaders said they now think it would be better to be in the opposition through an election at the quickest possible time rather than delaying the next parliamentary elections which could create more problem for the party. Sources said these leaders do not even have any objection if the BNP high command agrees to talk with their political opponent to avoid any possible disaster. Party sources said although the BNP high-ups fear more leaders will be arrested on corruption charges, they are trying to inject courage into party men to face the situation with patience and courage. Senior leaders, including BNP secretary general, had called for self-realisation and self-correction of the leaders and workers who have brought disaster for the party through unbelievable corruption by using government power and facilities in the last five years.
