Awami League Publicity and Publication Secretary Hasan Mahmud has called the members of BNP-Jamaat alliance 'militants.'Referring to the ongoing incidents of arsons, he said: 'The BNP-Jamaat has turned into a militant organisation. They are burning and killing people in the name of blockade and hartal.'
He made the statement while addressing a press conference at the prime minister's political office in Dhanmondi on Wednesday afternoon.
Calling the BNP-Jamaat men 'killers and terrorists,' he further said: 'We can not hold dialogue with such party. There will be no talks with the coalition members until they shun the path of militancy.'
Regarding the proposal on holding dialogue to resolve the ongoing crisis, he said: 'There is no necessity of holding dialogue as the government is running the country as per the constitution. A vested quarter is trying to take advantage of the situation by placing such proposals.'
'The initiators of 1/11, are only seen in such situations and flee the scene afterwards, are trying to hide Khaleda's crimes.'
