Andaleeve quits BNP-led 20 party alliance

Andaleeve Rahman Partho-led Bangladesh Jatiya Party announced to leave the Bangladesh Nationalist Party-led 20 party alliance on Monday.

‘We have decided to quit the 20-party alliance as BNP has become too much lenient towards Jatiya Oikya Front and the alliance activities had come to a standstill. There is no meeting of the alliance for the past several months,’ BJP chairman Partho told New Age.

He said that there was almost no participation of other parties in making a number of decisions, including joining the dialogue with the prime minister before the December 30, 2018 elections.

Besides, he said, the alliance rejected the elections and decided not to join the parliament but later BNP made a U-turn on this without holding any meeting with the alliance partners.

Through joining the parliament, BNP, as well as JOF, has lost its moral ground to reject the elections, he said.

He said that they would now revamp and strengthen his party.
