The Prime Minister was addressing a media conference at Gana Bhavan, her official residence on her visit to Thailand.
However, journalists asked him about the political situation in the country and the upcoming Upazila Parishad elections.
Responding to a question, the AL president said, “The left-leaning parties have taken a 90-degree turn. I have one question; Especially the radical left, I always think of them as progressive parties, and they're pro-people parties and so on. My question is – it is right that they want to overthrow me. Could they then decide who would come after him?”
The question was asked of the Prime Minister following his remarks at the Awami League Central Working Committee meeting on Tuesday, where he had said, “The radical Left and the radical Right jointly want to topple the government.”
