BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi on Sunday alleged that the government has formed a ‘private’ Awami body in the name of a search committee.
“We previously said only those who wear the ‘Mujib Coat’ being inspired by the spirit of Awami Baksal would be there in the search committee…the newly formed search committee is the absolute reflection of that assumption,” said Rizvi.
Speaking at a press conference at BNP’s Nayapaltan central office, he also said, "I think it’s justified to call it an ‘Awami private committee, not a search committee. This committee and those who will be found out by them for the Election Commission are all the passengers of the same boat. They’re birds of a feather," reports UNB.
The BNP leader also said all the names that would be proposed by the search committee would be members of the Awami family.
Rizvi said the intended goal of the search committee will be finding out the tested and genuine Awami family members to hold another ‘stage-managed’ election as per a government blueprint.
