People will vote with their own hands, not with machines: Musharraf

News Desk: BNP standing committee member. Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain has said that people will cast their votes in the next parliamentary elections by their own hands, not by machine (EVM). “There is a challenge in front of us now,” he said. That is to say, the government in power has to say goodbye to this body. An election-neutral government must be established. In that election, people will cast their votes with their own hands, not with machines. The BNP has to take this responsibility. He made the remarks at a prayer meeting at the BNP's central office in Nayapaltan on Friday (July 1). Musharraf said the country's most popular leader, Khaleda Zia, had been sentenced to life in prison in a fabricated case. Currently temporarily free in administrative order. He is extremely ill, having undergone his surgery at the hospital a few days ago. He is having a very bad day. Blaming the government for Khaleda Zia's illness, she said she was kept in solitary confinement in 2016, where there were no more people. Such loneliness kept him in an unusual environment. The leader got into a car on foot and went to jail, but was temporarily released in a state of complete illness. In other words, the government has kept the country's leader in jail and pushed her to the brink of death. The BNP standing committee leader said Khaleda Zia was so ill that her doctors were repeatedly asking her to take her abroad for treatment. Because he does not have that treatment in Bangladesh, he needs to be sent abroad for better treatment but the government has not listened. Today, everyone including BNP leaders and activists demanded that he be sent abroad for treatment. There is no need to send the government. Khaleda Zia herself will go for treatment. But the conditions given at the time of his temporary release should be revoked. The government is not doing that. He added that the government has only one weapon, Khaleda Zia, acting chairman Tarique Rahman and the BNP family, they want to stay in power. Khandaker Mosharraf also commented that corona infection is increasing in the country due to the negligence of the government. He said the government did not pay any attention to the increase in corona infection in China a few months ago. Now Corona is growing again, attacking our leaders. Here too the failure and negligence of the government. Adviser to the BNP Chairperson Abdus Salam, Organizing Secretary Abdus Salam Azad, Volunteer Affairs Secretary Mir Sarafat Ali Sapu, Rafiqul Alam Monju and others were present at the prayer meeting.
