None will be able to evict Khaleda Zia from her cantonment residence, said BNP Secretary General Khandaker Delwar Hossain yesterday urging the government to cancel its decision to revoke the allotment of the house to Khaleda."The cantonment house has been leased out to her for 99 years and she has been living there for the last 27 years. You [government] can go to the court and we will face you there," he said addressing a meeting in front of the party's central office.
Jasas, cultural wing of BNP, organised the meeting protesting the government decision to cancel the allotment.
"Find another place to rehabilitate the family members of army officials killed in the BDR carnage. Is there any dearth of land in Dhaka city?" he said.
Delwar said, "Public opinion is against the government decision, so the government should refrain from implementing such narrow-minded plan. Instead of giving threats please try to accept the cooperation of the opposition in running the country."
Ruhul Quddus Talukder Dulu, Babul Ahmed, MA Malek, Mosharraf Hossain also spoke at the meeting presided over by Fayezullah Fayez, president of Jasas Dhaka city unit.
