US Ambassador Dan W Mozena on Wednesday urged the major political parties of Bangladesh to reach a consensus through a constructive dialogue for holding the next general election in a credible manner.

“The political parties should change their attitude,” he said while talking to journalists after visiting the Hard Point of Sirajganj Town Protection Embankment.

“Every citizen has the right to live a secure life. All sides should play a responsible role so that normal life is not hampered due to violence,” he said.

Referring to erosion by the Jamuna river, Mozena said: “We’ll be with the people of this country for overcoming the crisis.”
