Bangladesh’s main Opposition party chief Khaleda Zia on Sunday demanded the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, after security forces prevented her from leaving her house to address a banned mass march.
“This Government is illegal; an undemocratic Govern-ment. They should step down immediately if they have any grace left with them,” the BNP chief and former premier said after over two hours of efforts to get out of her residence.
Zia came out of her car to address mediapersons where she waited to leave for Naya Paltan, the venue for Bangladesh Nationalist Party’s ‘march for democracy’.
