Dissolve parliament: BNP to president

Zainul Abdin Farroque
 Dhaka, May 22 (bdnews24.com)— The BNP chief whip has urged president Zillur Rahman to give mid-term election by dissolving parliament before the constitution amendment.

"The current parliament is dysfunctional. So, we urge president Zillur Rahman to dissolve it and give fresh polls before amending the constitution," Zainul Abdin Farroque said on Sunday.

He made the demand at a news conference held at the Media Centre of the parliament building hours before the parliament goes into its ninth session at 4pm on Sunday.

He said they had already decided not to go to parliament at the beginning of the session and the final decision would be made after the return of party chief Khaleda Zia from abroad. 

Khaleda, now in the US, is expected to return on May 29.
