Information and Broadcasting Minister Hasan Mahmud on Wednesday advised the opposition BNP to work for winning people’s support to come to power instead of lobbying with the foreigners.
He said this when journalists sought his comments on the opposition party’s recent meeting with the UN Resident Coordinator and European Union Ambassador.
Talking to journalists at Bangladesh Secretariat the minister further said that foreigners must not interfere in the country’s internal matters.
Hasan said BNP continues to insult the country by frequently going to the foreigners to raise the country’s domestic issues.
