Awami League Presidium Member Tofail Ahmed on Thursday said the people of the country have turned away from the BNP for its wrong politics and this will lead to the party’s extinction.

“BNP planned to rig the general election in 2006 that led to 1/11 in the country. It bagged 28 seats in 2008 general election and six seats in the December 30 (2018) polls. BNP will be like the Muslim League, Bhashani NAP and other extinct political parties in the next five years,” he said.

Tofail, a former minister, came up with the remarks at a view exchange meeting with grassroots activists of Awami League (AL) at a government school field in Bhola, reports BSS.

Bhola sadar upazila AL president and upazila parishad chairman Md Mosharef Hossain presided over the meeting addressed by, among others, Bhola district AL general secretary and district council chairman Abdul Mumin Tulu, upazila AL general secretary Islam Golder and upazila parishad vice-chairman Md Younus.
