Jamaat, Shibir put claws on Bangladesh to destroy development: PM

Describing the BNP and its student wing Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal as well as Jamaat-e-Islami and its student body Islami Chhatra Shibir as militants, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said they put their claws on Bangladesh to destroy its development.

The Shibir, Chhatra Dal, BNP, and Jamaat are the militants and they put their claws on us to undermine the country's development, she said.

The prime minister made the remarks while holding a meeting with the leaders of the 14-party alliance at her official residence Ganabhaban in Dhaka Monday evening.

She said countrywide mayhem was completely a militant act designed by the BNP-Jamaat clique. “The incidents, which are happening in the country, are not political matters, rather a complete act of militants. It is aimed at destroying Bangladesh.”

She came down heavily on the BNP-Jamaat clique to carry out the nationwide destruction cashing in the quota reform movement.
