Awami League (AL) General Secretary and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader on Monday said that there is no risk of conflict from AL side over Dhaka rally on July 27.

“There is no benefit of creating conflict in the country as we are in power. We will never incite any conflict. We want to run the country peacefully.

We want a peaceful election,” AL General Secretary said this at the orientation programme of AL’s Education and Human Resources Subcommittee at the party’s central office at Bangabandhu Avenue in the capital.

Obaidul Quader said this as the BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir expressed his concern saying the AL’s front body Juba League has called its rally on July 27 changing its date on the same day when the BNP called its grand rally in the capital.

“Creating anarchies in the country will bring no advantage for us rather cause loss. We do not want chaos. If anyone does, we will give protection to save people’s life and properties,” Quader said.

“70 percent of the country’s people are eagerly waiting to cast their votes for Sheikh Hasina’s symbol Boat. Therefore, Awami League is not afraid of the movement to oust the government,” he said.

“People are with us as they are our strength. We are not afraid of anyone’s threat of agitation,” Obaidul Quader said.

“BNP turns its rally, wherever the party holds, into a picnic party. I want to remind them one thing; they should bring more mosquito coils so that their activists, coming for movement, do not to be admitted into hospitals being contracted with dengue,” Quader said.

Mentioning about student politics, Obaidul Quader said the student politics has lost its beauty and glamour, but it has chance to be brought back.

Students’ emphasize should be given on education and research, he added.

AL’s Education and Human Resources Subcommittee Chairman Professor Dr Abdul Khalek presided over the programme while AL Education and Human Resources Secretary Shamsunnahar Chapa moderated the event.
