The BNP senior leader said the government’s steps have proved that it is arbitrarily attempting to keep alive the evil-force militants to be in power and set up a one-party rule.

The country has been experiencing to be a ‘breeding farm’ of terrorism as killing, forced disappearance; bloodbath and violence are seen across the country.
