Elections must be held before next Ramadan : Rizvi
Kurigram Correspondent
BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said, "Despite many crises in the country, we have all supported the Dr. Yunus government. Why shouldn't this government launder money abroad like Sheikh Hasina's government?"
Understanding the sentiments of the people and the verdict of the people, arrangements must be made to hold the National Assembly elections before the next Ramadan.
Don't engage in propaganda about Tarique Rahman, otherwise you will bring a lot of harm upon yourself.
Those involved in the murder of Sohag in front of Mitford Hospital have not only been expelled, but cases have been filed against them.
He said these at a program held at the Kurigram Central Eidgah ground on Tuesday at 1 pm to support the families of 10 martyrs of Kurigram in the July-August student-public movement, on behalf of the BNP family.
He further said, "Did two or three Islamic parties get a chance to do politics due to the grace of Ziaur Rahman? Now you have targeted Tarique Rahman and BNP. You have nothing to hide behind. When Ziaur Rahman died, Ershad killed democracy with the barrel of a gun. Even though you said no one would go with that Ershad, you went. With whom, with Sheikh Hasina. Always looking for advantages, always looking for deals. Even though you went, BNP did not go. Begum Khaleda Zia did not go. Khaleda Zia did not back down from the promises she made to the people."
He further said, "We have fought for 16 years. Let the rule of law be established, let justice be established, let there be a free and fair election. Voters have not been able to vote for 16 years. But why is there so much delay in this election? Understanding the sentiments of the people, he said that the election will be held before the next Ramadan."
The program was presided over by District BNP Convener Mostafizur Rahman, and speakers included BNP Divisional Co-Organizing Secretary Abdul Khalek, District BNP Member Secretary Sohel Hosnain Kaykobad, Professor Shafiqul Islam Bebu, Professor Hasibur Rahman Hasib, Saifur Rahman Rana, and others.
At the event, assistance of Tk 50,000 was given to each family of the martyrs of the July-August student-public movement.
