Rangpur, Aug 01 (V7N) - Opposition leader and Chairman of the Jatiya Party, GM Quader MP, commented that the government is attempting to impose its views through repression and suppression by using the defense forces. 
 
Quader stated that the government's use of the defense forces to protect its position is damaging the economy and tarnishing the country's image abroad. He made these remarks yesterday afternoon at a press conference during his two-day visit to Rangpur at the Circuit House. 
 
GM Quader said that the government has established a dictatorial and autocratic regime. He also commented that maintaining power by repressing people cannot be the principle of a civilized society. GM Quader demanded a thorough investigation and justice for the incident where quota protesters were shot and killed. 
 
During this time, National Party's co-chairman, Rangpur City Corporation Mayor Mostafizur Rahman Mostafa, Vice Chairman SM Yasir, and other leaders and activists of the Jatiya Party were present.
