Reply from Hasnat Abdullah
However, the post drew a sharp response from NCP leader Hasnat Abdullah. He openly criticized Dr. Nazrul by commenting under his post:
“প্রতিবাদের কাজ আপনার? ভণ্ডামি বাদ দেন স্যার। যেই জন্য বসানো হইছে সেটা না করে কী কী করছেন এসবের হিসাব দিতে হবে। কে কোথায় কিভাবে কোন কাজে বাধা দিছে এসব খবর আমাদের কাছে আছে। এসব প্রতিবাদের ভং না ধরে কাজটা করেন।”
Translation: “Is protest your job? Stop this hypocrisy, Sir. You must give an account of why you were appointed and what you are actually doing. We know who is obstructing what and where. Instead of acting with fake protests, do your real work.”
