"I will not run away. Where will I run away? I will not run away, if necessary, I will go to Fakhrul Saheb's house and get up," said Awami League General Secretary and former Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader on January 29 last year, addressing BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir.
The Awami League government fell in a student-public uprising in July-August. Sheikh Hasina resigned from the post of Prime Minister and left the country on August 5. Since then, there has been no trace of Obaidul Quader. He is physically in hiding. Not even in the virtual world. Before the fall of the government, he used to give statements almost every day, but he has not made any statements to be published in the media in the last 6 and a half months.
Meanwhile, the book fair caught the eye with the 'Sheikh Hasina dustbin' where the Chief Advisor's Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam and Advisor Asif Mahmud threw dirt. Just when this is being discussed on social media, a picture of Sheikh Hasina's Obaidul Quader throwing dirt in the dustbin went viral on social media. However, upon seeing the picture, it is clear that it is an edited picture. Which has no resemblance to reality.
Despite various rumors, there is no trace of Obaidul Quader's whereabouts.
