BNP wants to destroy country’s achievements: Quader

BNP wants to destroy the country’s achievements in the name of boycotting Indian goods, said Awami League (AL) General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader.

He made the remark while talking to reporters at the ceremony to open seven flyovers for vehicular movement through videoconferencing from Bangladesh Secretariat here on Sunday (March 24) afternoon.

The flyovers were constructed under the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT, Airport-Gazipur) Project.

Quader said, “Is it possible to boycott the Indian products? Amid the current context of Bangladesh and India, the transactions of essential commodities and the exchange that takes place...the proposal of the boycott is unrealistic.”

He said BNP leaders themselves are tired of their failures, while their workers are disappointed. “We do not see the similarity of the statements of any of the leaders. Moyeen Khan seeks India’s cooperation, while Rizvi again calls for the boycott of Indian goods,” he added.
