Senior BNP leader accuses Yunus-led interim govt of partisan bias

Khulna, May 18 (UNI) Senior Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) leader Salahuddin Ahmed has accused the Interim Government of partisan bias and demanded the removal of two of its advisors due to their alleged affiliations with the National Citizen Party (NCP), the political arm of the powerful student's body Students Against Discrimination.
Addressing a high-energy rally in Khulna on Saturday, Ahmed warned that public patience was wearing thin and that the Mohd Yunus-led interim government risked losing its legitimacy if it failed to uphold neutrality.
Speaking to thousands of supporters, many of them young activists from BNP’s affiliate bodies—Chhatra Dal, Jubo Dal, and Swechchhasebak Dal — Ahmed declared that the interim government, formed in order to restore democracy "had betrayed its mandate by aligning itself with smaller political factions to consolidate power", reports The Daily Star.
