"What are you (BNP) going to play with? You got caught last time. You will get caught again," Quader added.
He also rejected BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul's protest about the rising price of goods comparing the rates of 2006 with 2022.
"In 2006, the budget was Tk69 thousand crore while the current government has a budget of over Tk6 lakh crore."
"The complaint party's job is to file complaints with foreigners," remarked the AL General Secretary.
