Road Transport and bridges minister Obaidul Quader accusing BNP said they are hatching deep conspiracy in the name to ‘Boycott Indian Products’ to unstable country’s market system.
Quader also Awami League General Secretary said at the same time that people of Bangladesh will not response to their conspiracy.
He made accused BNP while addressing a press conference held at the Party President Sheikh Hasina’s Dhanmondi political office in Dhaka on Friday (March 22).
On Wednesday, throwing Indian shawl away in front of the BNP Nayapaltan central office, the party’s Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi called for the boycott of Indian products.
“Boycotting Indian products means boycotting the government as it is also an Indian product,” Rizvi said.
In response to the boycotting Indian products the minister said BNP's desire to destroy relations with India is an expression of mental weakness.
Such a call will not affect the friendly relationship between the two countries but the people will boycott those who came up with the call for ‘boycotting Indian products, Quader said.
BNP experienced political bankruptcy and thus its leaders are making derogatory remarks to destroy relations with a friendly neighbor, going beyond the diplomatic etiquette, he said.
