Bangladesh Khelafat Majlis Amir Maulana Mamunul Haque has said that the ruling BNP cannot survive if it betrays the legacy of Shaheed Ziaur Rahman and Begum Khaleda Zia. Speaking at a public rally at Suhrawardy Udyan in Dhaka on Friday, he called on BNP leaders not to turn away from the political foundation that emerged from the February 12 election. He also linked the proposed July Revolution to the historical movements of 1905, 1921, 1947, 1971, 2013, and 2024, describing it as a continuation of Bangladesh’s national and Islamic heritage.

Haque warned that if BNP goes against the referendum that led to its formation, it would be seen as the only party in the world to betray such a process. He further criticized the government for growing unrest and the presence of weapons in educational institutions, saying the authorities would bear full responsibility if the situation worsens.

The rally also featured speeches from leaders of Jamaat-e-Islami, the National Citizen Party, the Liberal Democratic Party, and other allied political groups.
