"She is now the leader of violence," Nasim said during a visit to the burn unit of Dhaka Medical College and Hospital (DMCH) on Saturday morning.

“People are burning in the flames of Khaleda Zia’s vengeance. They are fighting with death at the burn unit of Dhaka Medical College and Hospital,” he said.

“Although Begum Zia claims to be a democratic leader , she has turned into a leader of violence at present. People of the country demands measures against those who are unleashing violence.”

Nasim said the government was not ‘failing’ to maintain law and order.

“Suddenly covert attacks are taking place. Police is trying to detain the assailants. Many have already been detained.”

The minister assured that the government would provide all sorts of support to ensure the proper treatment of the victims.
