BNP to sit for dialogue as per Bachelet's advice if Khaleda released


Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) is ready to sit for dialogue with the government according to the advice of United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet. But, the party has demanded permanet release of its chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia.

It was stated BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir while talking with journalists at BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia's Gulshan residence on Wednesday.

"With the permanent release of Khaleda Zia, there is no scope of holding talks with the government," he said.

During a press conference in Dhaka on Wednesday (August 17), Michelle Bachelet suggested both the ruling Awami League and opposition BNP to hold dialogues for removing political differences among them.

"There needs to be space for more dialogue among political parties and with a wide range of civil society actors to prevent grievances from building and erupting in social unrest," Bachelet told reporters at the press conference held at a city hotel.

However, Fakhrul said no dialogue can be held without the release of Begum Khaleda Zia for resolving the political crisis in the country. "Question does not arise at all to sit in dialogue unless this government resigns from power, abolish the parliament and handover power to a non-party caretaker government."
