An audio recording of former BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia expressing anger toward party leader Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury has gone viral on social media. The conversation, reportedly from 2013, captures Khaleda Zia reprimanding Khasru for allegedly obstructing a party program in Chattogram. In the audio, she instructs former organizational leader Golam Akbar Khondkar to ensure that Khasru does not interfere with the work assigned to Dr. Shahadat Hossain, warning that she would remove him immediately if he did. Golam Akbar Khondkar confirmed the authenticity of the conversation, explaining that it took place during a period of internal disagreement within the Chattogram BNP over movement strategies. At the time, Khasru was the city convenor, and Khondkar served as organizational secretary. The dispute reportedly arose over the organization of a rally or meeting that Khasru opposed despite directives from Khaleda Zia. Attempts to reach Amir Khasru for comment were unsuccessful, as he did not respond to calls or messages. Senior BNP leaders declined to comment publicly, with some suggesting that the resurfacing of the old audio might have political motives.
