I refused and resigned for the peace of the country, I want to request the citizens of Bangladesh not to get provoked by the words of the fundamentalists and maintain peace. If I had stayed in Bangladesh, more people would have died. I will return to Bangladesh soon, even if I lose, the victory belongs to the people of Bangladesh.
