BNP Standing Committee Member Dr AZM Zahid Hossain on Friday said fallen dictator Sheikh Hasina fled after resigning, but her 'ghosts' are still hatching various conspiracies against Bangladesh.

Talking to reporters while distributing relief materials among the flood victims in Muhuriganj Bazar in Feni, he also warned that the consequences for those conspiring to destabilise the RMG sector will not be good.

“The flood that hit the southern part of Bangladesh is also part of the conspiracy. Because Sheikh Hasina's close ally India opened the dam without informing Bangladesh,” he said.

The BNP leader said the people of the south-eastern districts of Bangladesh, including Noakhali, Feni, and Comilla, have gone through serious suffering being marooned by the flash flood as India opened the dams.

Zahid said many houses, cows, goats, and fishing farms were washed away, and crops land destroyed in these districts by the floodwater.

“Even many people, including children, drowned in the floodwater,” the BNP leader bemoaned, narrating the trail of destruction caused by the flood.

He thanked the leaders and activists of BNP and its associated bodies and different other organisations for standing by the flood victims and extending their helping hands.

Zahid alleged that a vested quarter is now trying to create unrest in the garment sector while the country is going through a transitional period under an interim government. “But no conspiracy will succeed.”

As per a directive of BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman, Jatiyatabadi Swechchasebak Dal arranged the relief distribution programme.

Dhaka South City Unit BNP convener Rafiqul Alam Majnu, Swechchasebak Dal president SM Zilani, General Rajib Ahsan, and local leaders of BNP and its different front organisations were present.
