Jatiya Sangsad imbalanced: GM Quader  

The Leader of the Opposition in the Parliament GM Quader has said there is no balance between the number of ruling party and opposition lawmakers in the 12th Jatiya Sangsad as a result it will make incapable of carrying out its responsibilities perfectly.

He came up with the remark while congratulating Shirin Sharmin Chaudhury on her appointment as the Speaker in the maiden session of the parliament on Tuesday afternoon.

About 75 per cent of the seats now belong to the government party, 21 per cent are independent and only 3-4 per cent are opposition party members, he mentioned. 

“There is a lack of balance in seat distribution. It lacks symmetry,” he said.
