Govt to run full term: PM


Prime Minister Khaleda Zia yesterday said people had given mandate to the BNP-led four-party alliance to govern the country for five years and the coalition would run its full term.

She said people will not bring those back to power who don't believe in democracy and don't go to parliament.

Khaleda, the BNP chairperson, called upon people to go ahead with politics of development and production rejecting the forces of chaos and unrest forever.

"They (AL) don't believe in peace and democracy. They indulge in politics of destruction, arson and vandalism," she told a big public meeting at Chandina Redwan Ahmed Degree College ground in Comilla.

Criticising their destructive politics on the streets instead of attending parliament, she cautioned that they would not be able to retain the present position in opposition.

People will again vote BNP and its allies to power for development works across the country, she hoped.

The leader of the four-party alliance said there is no alternative to BNP and four-party alliance government for development and progress of the country.

Chaired by Comilla (north) BNP president Redwan Ahmed MP, the rally was addressed by Health Minister Dr Khondokar Mosharraf Hossain, Agriculture Minister MK Anwar, BNP leader Begum Rabeya Chowdhury, Manjurul Ahsan Munshi MP and Kazi Shah Mofazzel Hossain Kaikobad MP.
