BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia on Saturday said a midterm election has now become people’s demand in the wake of, what she said, the government’s ‘failure’ in all fronts.
Talking to reporters at Heathrow International Airport in London before flying for New York, she said the government should quit power to hold the snap polls recognising the public demand to uphold democracy.
She flew to New York by Virgin Atlantic Airlines at 10:30am local time.
The BNP had offered cooperation but the government did not respond to it; rather pushed them to street for movement, Khaleda said.
She termed her UK visit as ‘fruitful’.
Khaleda Zia said that she came to London to meet her eldest son Tarique Rahman, daughter-in-law and granddaughter.
Replying to a question, she said Tarique’s health is improving.
On her meetings with British politicians, Khaleda said the existing good ties between Dhaka-London will be further enhanced in future.
She said she has requested the UK government to increase its cooperation in different sectors in Bangladesh
