Senior Awami League leader and coordinator of the 14-party grand alliance Amir Hossain Amu on Tuesday hinted at the possibility of talks between the government and the opposition with a view to resolving election issues.
"It is not possible to resolve the crisis through any other means than dialogue. And if they (BNP) try to come to power unconstitutionally, the people will resist," he said, while addressing a 14-party protest rally against domestic and international conspiracies against the country at Bangabandhu Avenue on Tuesday afternoon.
