“Khaleda Zia is hatching a conspiracy to go to power through illegal means in many ways,” Quader, also roads transport and bridges minister alleged.

Awami League Organising Secretary Enamul Hoque Shameem said the attack that was carried out on BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia’s motorcade in Feni area is an outcome of the party’s internal feud.
