The BNP secretary general said that “The leader who brought back democracy in 1991 has been imprisoned with a false case. They are smuggling thousands of crores of money. Mega looting is going on in mega projects.”
“They are destroying the health system and destroying the education system. We have to get out of this situation,” he added.
