No CG in future, says Modasser

Prime minister's health and social welfare adviser Syed Modasser Ali has said the defunct non-party neutral caretaker government will not be restored in the country.

'The people will decide who will govern the country in future,' he said while speaking as the chief guest at a workshop on pneumonia in the city.

Prekkhit, a non-governmental organisation, organised the workshop at Dhaka Reporters' Unity on the eve of World Pneumonia Day to be observed

on November 12.

Those days are gone for grabbing state power through conspiracy,

rigging and anarchy. Change of power will take place constitutionally in the country in future, he added.

Modasser said the

government would strengthen the Election Commission so that the next general election could be held in a free and neutral manner.

He criticised the caretaker government system and said that the prime minister, Sheikh Hasina, believed in the power of the people.

He opposed holding any talks between the two top leaders on the next polls, citing 'boundless corruption' by an opposition leader while in power.

If necessary, discussions could be held between the leaders of the

Awami League and the

BNP at other levels,

he said.

The adviser condemned the opposition's anti-government movement

and said the government wanted to extend cooperation to the opposition

parties.

The danger of pneumonia in Bangladesh was discussed in the workshop, where journalists from print and electronic media took part.
