BNP leader ANM Ahsanul Haque Milon has questioned why he was prevented from travelling abroad. The BNP leader and former state minister for education demanded an explanation from the interim government regarding the issue at a press briefing at the National Press Club on Friday. "I want the government to tell me why I was not allowed to go abroad. The BNP leader recalled incidents during the 15 years of the "fascist" Awami League government, when leaders of opposition political parties, including the BNP, were not allowed to travel abroad, especially former prime minister and BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia. When Milon arrived at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport to fly to Bangkok on Thursday morning, the Immigration Department prevented him from leaving.
