Dhaka, Jan 30 ( UNI) On the day of holding the session of new parliament, opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) on Wednesday demanded a fresh election under a neutral government.
BNP secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir raised the demand from human chain programme the party organised in front of the National Press Club on Wednesday morning.
The Awami League had established a one-party rule in 1975 killing democracy. They've now formed a government and parliament without the people's mandate, violating the people's basic rights, ruining democratic institutions, using the state machinery and resorting to terrorism to restore its one-party rule, he said.
