I’ve no relation with Tarique: Dr Kamal Dr Kamal Hossain speaking at the conference

DHAKA:  Gano Forum President Dr Kamal Hossain on Monday ruled out any personal relation with BNP acting chairman Tarique Rahman.

He said, “BNP is in our alliance for political reasons. This alliance is just for ensuring a fair election. I have no relation with Tarique Rahman. I have no wish to be a candidate for election or to obtain a government post.”

Jatiya Oikyafront has been formed to hold a credible election through consensus, Dr Kamal Hossain told reporters while holding a press conference of Gano Forum on Monday (October 22).

We’re giving importance to the construction of public opinion for a fair, free, inclusive, and neutral election. We will focus issues which all citizens can contribute to stage such an election. All constitutional organizations and media will play a role in this regard, Dr Kamal added.

BNP is one of partners of the newly-formed political alliance Jatiya Oikyafront.

It includes Dr Kamal Hossain-led Jatiya Oikya Prokriya, ASM Abdur Rab's Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal, and Mahmudur Rahman Manna's Nagorik Oikya.

Jatiya Oikyafront was formed on October 13 with the demands of a national election under a neutral government through dissolution of parliament and release of BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia from jail.
