Ruling Awami League general secretary Obaidul Quader on Tuesday said that the Bangladesh Nationalist Party was ‘preparing to foil the election through violence.’

‘We will not leave the country in the hands of Pakistan’s friends. The country, democracy, development, nothing is safe with them,’ he said.

The road, transport and bridges minister made the remarks while addressing a views-exchange meeting at the party’s central office on Bangabandhu Avenue in Dhaka this morning.

He also urged the party leaders and activists to fight for the country till the end.
