CHATTOGRAM Bureau: Information and Broadcasting Minister Dr Hasan Mahmud today said BNP is the enemy of humanity, state, society and journalists so that they must be resisted.
“BNP has gone in hide while hatching anti-state conspiracy. BNP leaders are now announcing programme from hidden place,” said Hasan, also Joint General Secretary of Awami League.
Hasan was addressing as chief guest at a discussion organized marking the 11th anniversary of the weekly ‘Chatgar Sangbad’ newspaper at the Bangabandhu Hall of Chattogram Press Club on Friday evening.

Conspiracies against the country are still going on, he added.
Highlighting different development works of the government, he said that people never dreamt of a tunnel under the Karnaphuli river but this is reality now.
