Online Desk: There is no patriotism among some political parties including BNP, said Awami League presidium member and Textiles and Jute Minister Jahangir Kabir Nanak on Thursday.
“There is no patriotism among our country’s political parties because they lack patriotism and do not carry out the responsibilities that should do in the national interest. BNP and some political parties have a specific agenda, they have a motive, they oppose for the sake of opposition,” he said.
The minister said these after distributing warm clothes among the cold-hit people at Aziz Mahalla of Mohammadpur of Dhaka-13 constituency.
“Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is dealing with the Myanmar crisis and Rohingya issue with a lot of patience and prudence. The situation that is going on in Myanmar now is their internal matter. There can be no reason to create mental stress or a situation within the country over that issue,” he said.
Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) is performing their duty and they remain alert, Nanak added.
“We cannot have any relation with the internal affairs of Myanmar. There are international rules to protest against the occasional landing of two or four shells that cause us casualties. The government summoned the Myanmar Ambassador and lodged a strong protest and warned them. Even then, if a situation arises, there are international organizations, including the United Nations. We will go to them,” said the AL leader.
Dhaka Metropolitan North Awami League President Sheikh Buzlur Rahman and local Awami League and associate organizations leaders and workers were present on the occasion.
