Rejecting the BNP's demand for restoring the caretaker government, the Prime Minister said she does not understand why the BNP leaders are demanding caretaker government after experiencing oppression and torture under the immediate past caretaker government.
"The nation still remember the oppression and torture by the army-backed caretaker government when BNP chairperson was not spared from their oppression, they also arrested the BNP chairperson."
