Awami League was right fit for Jamaat: Mirza Abbas
Urging the public to remain alert, he added, "I request the people to stay safe from these groups and their activities."
Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami was never able to practise civil politics and that Awami League had always been a better match for the party, BNP Standing Committee Member Mirza Abbas said today (3 December).
"Awami League is an indecent party and Jamaat is an uncivilised one. To keep Jamaat in check, Awami League works like medicine," Abbas said while addressing the inauguration of a medical camp at Siddheswari Balur Math.
Abbas alleged that Jamaat never wanted Bangladesh to exist in the first place, reports UNB.

He said the Razakars and Al-Badr collaborators handed over the people of Bangladesh, including women, to the Pakistani occupation forces.
"Today those same people are asking for votes and making big claims," he said.
Accusing Jamaat of distorting religion, Abbas said, "They believe in Moududism, not in the true spirit of Islam. They only wear the label of being Muslim."
Urging the public to remain alert, he added, "I request the people to stay safe from these groups and their activities."
Abbas also sought prayers from the nation for BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia during the event.
