DHAKA: Civil Aviation and Tourism Minister Rashed Khan Menon termed BNP senior vice chairman Tarique Rahman as one and only black sheep in the history of Bangladesh politics.

The minister came up with the assertion while talking to journalists at his secretariat office in city on Tuesday.

Recently, Tarique made a remark on Rashed Khan Menon’s presence in the oath programme of Khandakar Mushtaq’s government in 1975.

Indicating Tarique’s remark, Rashed Khan Menon said that making such type of remark Tarique Rahman destroyed youth spirit.

He also said that Ziaur Rahman in his writings mentioned Bangabandhu as the great leader, but his son is continuously speaking ‘non-sense’.
