Parliament now a one-party club: Fakhrul

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Monday alleged that the government has turned the National Parliament into a 'one-party club' by destroying the country’s electoral system, reports UNB.

“They (govt) have destroyed all the democratic institutions. Is it a Parliament that they have formed? They’ve created a one-party club.  It’s a club of Awami League,” he said.

Speaking at a discussion meeting at the National Press Club the BNP Secretary General also said the government has ruined the electoral system to cling to power by force.

Stating that the electoral system is the gateway of democracy, he said the Parliament and cabinet are supposed to be formed to run the country through a credible election. “But they've destroyed the electoral system. People now do not go to cast their votes.”
