Speaking at a press conference in the city he said, "We formed an alliance with BNP and Jamaat before 2001 general election and our alliance ended with the expiry of the government."

"Now we are taking preparation for contesting the election separately," said Azizul Huq, also the Amir of Bangladesh Khelafat Majlish, in a written statement.

He, however, said ahead of 2007 general election his party can also form alliance with any party having similar ideology and political demands.

"If BNP regrets its past mistakes and pledges to work together in future we can also form an alliance with it in the upcoming general election, said Azizul Huq.

He alleged that the BNP-led alliance government ignored many opinions of Oikya Jote while taking important political decisions in different occasions.

The Shaikhul Hadith also blamed the BNP for conspiring to breaking up the Islami Oikya Jote.

Nayeb-e-Amirs Shahidul Islam and Habibur Rahman, General Secretary Abdur Rab Eusufi and Organising Secretary Humayun Kabir also spoke at the press conference.
