Militants gradually taking over the country’s control: BNP

Mentioning the government’s failure in tackling militancy, BNP on Tuesday said it seems that the country has become a sanctuary of extremists and militants.

 

In a statement, party secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir also alleged that militants are getting stronger instead of being eliminated.

 

Quoting Fakhrul UNB said “It seems the militants and extremists are taking over the country’s authority due to the inaction of the government that has no people’s mandate. Selected killings are being carried out across the country. The organised militants are gradually making the country as their safe haven”.

 

The statement was issued denouncing the killing of a Hindu priest by assailants at Sonaikhali village in Jhenidah Sadar upazila on Tuesday morning.

 

Three people riding on a motorcycle intercepted Anando Gopal Ganguly, 70, on his way to a temple and slit his throat after hacking him indiscriminately.

 

Protesting the murder, Fakhrul said the repeated attacks of militants on human life have now become irresistible. “Anyone is being subjected to their monstrous attacks anywhere every day.”

 

A deep panic is now prevailing everywhere following the murders of people of different faiths, he observed.

 

Though a sense of insecurity is haunting the panic-stricken people, the BNP leader said, ministers are calming the law and order situation is good and there is no militancy in Bangladesh.
