Khaleda blasts govt for damaging temples ‘with its own people’
MUNSHIGANJ: Accusing pro-government elements of attacking temples of the minority communities to divert people’s attention from its misdeeds, BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia on Friday urged the current regime to stop the game.
“Stop attacking temples…you (govt) will have to face the dire consequences if one more temple is damaged,” Khaleda said in a note of warning to the government.
The leader of the opposition was addressing a rally at Goalimandra Bazar in Louhajang upazila in the afternoon. Earlier, Khaleda visited a Hindu community’s temple, recently damaged by miscreants, at the bazaar.
Referring to the Shahbagh movement, the BNP chairperson said a group of atheists and pro-government people are involved in the so-called protest. “Stop the politics of erecting Manchas-Fanchas (Podiums)…people will drive you out when they’ll start marching towards Dhaka to erect their own Manchas.”
The BNP chief arrived at the damaged temple around 5:20 pm, talked to the affected people and assured them of rebuilding their worship place.
Unidentified miscreants torched the temple at the dead of night on March 3.
