BNP has nothing to do, but to wait for another 5 years: Obaidul Quader

Awami League general secretary Obaidul Quader on Monday said the people of the country gave a befitting reply to the arsonists, defeated forces of 1971, and the killers of August 15 through balloting.

"BNP-Jamaat has failed this time too and after boycotting the election repeatedly, now BNP has nothing to do except waiting for five years. All allegations BNP brought are now unrealistic and baseless," he said, reports UNB.

Quader came up with the remarks while talking to reporters at AL‍‍`s Tejgaon office in the capital.

He also urged the BNP to accept the truth.

"We‍‍`ll implement the pledges made in the election manifesto and a smart and prosperous Bangladesh will be built in future. This election will be a milestone in the country‍‍`s democratic journey," said the AL general secretary.
