Nayeb-e-Ameer of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami and former lawmaker Professor Mujibur Rahman has issued the following statement on 3rd May, 2017 reacting to the address of the Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina which she has delivered in the National Parliament defending the defence treaties and MoUs, signed during her recent India trip.
“Prime Minister has addressed the Parliament defending the defence treaties and MoUs, signed during her recent India trip, which is not acceptable to the countrymen by any means. If her claim is true and accurate, why the treaties are not made public yet?
To prove authenticity of the Prime Minister’s address in the parliament and to resolve the growing confusion and apprehension among the countrymen, all contents of the treaties must be disclosed. Only then, the countrymen would be able to justify whether these signed treaties are in favour of the national interest or not.
