“I will tell our leaders and workers that everyone should play responsible role in their speech and behavior. At this time, it is not appropriate to speak irresponsibly and show power. You have to stand by people with a cool head. We have to work for people, this is our biggest message today,’ he said.
Quader, also the Road Transport and Bridges Minister, commented that the cost of living has increased as the government was helpless.
“The whole world is in crisis. A negative impact is facing Bangladesh today. We know many people are suffering. As the cost of living has gone up, it is right that people are suffering. But there was no way in front of us,” he added.

Apart from UK, Germany, France, our neighboring country Sri Lanka, Pakistan, nobody is comfortable today. The people of Bangladesh are suffering. The bes efforts were taken to tackle the situation.
Claiming that BNP is plotting to overthrow the government without standing by the people, he said that many countries of the world are plagued with problems today.

He said, “We wanted co-operation. All countries in this world have extended their hands to help in the crisis. And in Bangladesh they (BNP) are plotting to overthrow the government.”
Warning BNP,Obaidul Quader said that none of us are trying to stop the peaceful movement. “But if you want to come down and deal with fire-terrorism, then I will say…the people’s resistance will turn into a tsunami and a befitting reply will be given,’ he explained.
