BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi's allegations came on Tuesday while speaking to the media during a demonstration.
“We believe the attack on the party’s senior leaders including the secretary general was carried out on the instructions from government bigwigs like Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Hasan Mahmud and his armed goons orchestrated the attack,” Rizvi said.
“Government feels we will be frightened by this attack. They coordinated a similar attack on the motorcade of Khaleda Zia in Karwan Bazar and in Narayanganj,” he added.
Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir's motorcade came under attack on Sunday on its way to Rangamati to visit the recent landslide affected people.
The seven-member delegation started from Chittagong ifor Rangamati's Kaptai. They were scheduled to board a vessel from there for the hill tract district town.
