According to the sources, Raushan Ershad waited to sign the letter because she wanted to give Quader more time.
However, she signed the letter this morning and claimed to be the party’s chairperson. The change occurs three days after their meeting at the Gono Bhaban with Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
