Bangladesh If you tell me too much, I will shut everything down: Prime Minister
Own Correspondence, Dhaka, 7 October 2023: "If you talk to me too much, I will shut everything down," warned Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. She said this at a press conference organized to highlight various aspects of his visit to United Kingdom and attending the 78th session of the United Nations General Assembly in the United States at Ganabhaban on Friday, October 6 afternoon.
In response to the questions of the journalists, the Prime Minister said, "If you talk to me too much, I will shut everything down. I will do it again when the polls come. Let's see who agrees to take responsibility. I have prepared everything, now I sit and talk big. I have lost all my parents. I have nothing to lose. I have been marching since I was 15-16 years old. How many years have I been in politics? I had a dream - the father of the nation, I did it, now no one goes without food."
Responding to the question about reserves, Hasina said, "Those wise and intelligent people talk. What do they know, when we came to power, how much was the reserve? Where was Bangladesh, where did we bring it? We have as much reserve as we need. It is important for us to be good. Or is the reserve needed more? If so, then we bring the reserve to the previous place? We close the power plant."
The Prime Minister said, "I have asked the Minister of State for Power to provide a little load shedding every day. So that everyone understands the importance of having electricity. And everyone is using electricity. The wealthy are taking advantage. For this reason, I have given instructions that those who use more will pay more. To fix the price in that way. "
Members of the Cabinet, Awami League leaders, parliamentarians and government officials including various media representatives participated in the press conference.
