Home, energy ministers must go: Nahid

National Citizen Party (NCP) Convener and opposition chief whip Nahid Islam demanded the resignations of Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed and Energy Minister Iqbal Hasan Mahmud Tuku, saying they failed to discharge their responsibilities over the past seven months. Speaking at a leaflet distribution campaign in Karwan Bazar, Dhaka on Friday (23 October), he accused the government of failing on law and order, citing attacks on journalists and opposition activists and drug trafficking, and criticised rising commodity and fuel prices, which he said were forcing middle-income families to cut purchases. He called the BNP-led government "anti-people and undemocratic" and announced a mass demonstration in front of the National Museum at Shahbagh on 30 October. Nahid also demanded reconstitution of the cabinet and the withdrawal of a proposed cyber security amendment.

Where accounts differ. Only Bangladesh Bulletin and Banglavision report the Jamaat ameer's separate election remarks or the Magura doctor suspension, which are different stories, while Dhaka Post and Bangladesh Bulletin differ from The Daily Star in omitting the energy minister's name; no conflict on core facts.
