BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia said on Sunday that the government has failed to sign the Teesta water treaty with India due to lack of its bargaining capacity.

“If the government does not have the bargaining capacity, nobody will give the country anything,” the opposition leader said while addressing a roadside rally at Jessore Eidgah Maidan around 11:45am.

Khaleda was on her way to her third road march towards Khulna.

The two-day cross-country caravan will end Sunday through a public meeting at Khulna Circuit House at 3:30pm.

Khaleda alleged on Sunday that the government has resorted to all sorts of means to turn Bangladesh into a state of India.

Khaleda blamed the Indian government for what she said constructing phensidyl factories in the border areas.

“The Indian government is constructing the phensidyl factories in the border areas to destroy our promising young generation.”


Touching upon the domestic issues, the opposition leader said her party would bring down the prices of the daily essentials if voted to power.

But she reiterated that the BNP would not take part in the next general elections if it is not held by a caretaker government.

“Without it (caretaker government), we do not and will not accept any election in the country,”

The BNP chief demanded new Election Commission and army deployment in the next parliamentary elections.

She termed the electronic voting machine (EVM) as a “machine for vote rigging”.

BNP leaders Moudud Ahmed, Brig Gen Hanan Shah and Torikul Islam also addressed the programme.

After the rally ended around 12:30pm, the road march resumed its journey towards Bagerhat where Khaleda will offer ziarat at Khan Jahan Ali’s shrine.

A convoy led by Khaleda began its journey from the Jessore Circuit House around 11:25am where she stayed the night.

Khaleda, leader of the opposition in the House, began her third two-day cross-country caravan on Saturday from the capital’s Uttara area.

Local BNP and its allies including Jamaat-e-Islami have set up hundreds of arches on roads to welcome the leader of the opposition in different areas, report our district correspondents.


Earlier on October 10, Khaleda led her first road march towards Sylhet and the second towards Chapainawabganj on October 18 and 19 in efforts to mobilise public support for restoring the caretaker government system.

The system was scrapped through the Fifteenth Amendment to the constitution in June this year, providing for the incumbent administration to oversee general elections.

The BNP chief on many occasions has said her party would not participate in the upcoming parliament elections if it is not held under a caretaker government.

AL leaders including its President Sheikh Hasina, who is also the prime minister, maintain the next national polls will be held under the current government.

As part of the protest, Khaleda in September announced three road marches towards Sylhet, Chittagong and Rajshahi. The Chittagong march was later postponed while the one towards Rajshahi was redirected to Chapainawabganj.

Party's acting Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, however, said earlier they would organise road marches towards Chittagong and Barisal as well.
 
Indian govt does not build factories anymore, this is not 80s.

In which world you are living in??? We are not talking about 80s but 21st century. India is actively running phensedyl factories along Bangladesh border for smuggling to destroy the youth of Bangladesh.
