BNP Acting secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Wednesday urged the government to hold an election through a discussion with BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia in a bid to avert crisis.

The BNP spokesperson said this while addressing a discussion at National Press Club in the city.

He said the foreign minister lied about Bangladesh’s National election and dialogue at a meeting held between Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon in USA.

Fakhrul also said Ban Ki Moon has already sent a letter for an election with the participation of all political parties of Bangladesh.
