Dhaka, March 28 -- BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi on Friday accused the interim government of creating confusion about the national election by making contradictory statements, similar to those of the ousted autocratic ruler Sheikh Hasina.

"We see attempts to create confusion about the election. December, June or March - they are making different statements at different times. This is similar to some of Sheikh Hasina's statements," he said.

Rizvi made the comments while distributing Eid gifts among rickshaw-van pullers and auto-rickshaw drivers on behalf of BNP acting chairman Tarique Rahman at the party's Nayapaltan central office.
