BNP Chairperson Tarique Rahman declared that farmers are the main driving force of Bangladesh, emphasizing that the country's well-being depends on their prosperity. Speaking as the chief guest at an election rally at Chattogram’s Polo Ground on Sunday morning, he announced that if the BNP wins the February 12 election, the party will gradually distribute agricultural cards to all farmers. The rally drew hundreds of thousands of participants from various city units.

Rahman stated that to reduce rising commodity prices, agricultural production must increase, and this requires standing beside farmers and farm workers. He assured that BNP’s promises to the people would be implemented gradually once the party forms the government. He urged voters to support the BNP by voting for its symbol, the paddy sheaf.

Highlighting law and order and corruption, Rahman alleged that citizens had been deprived of their rights in these areas for the past 15 years. He pledged that a future BNP government would strictly enforce law and order and curb corruption, ensuring a safe livelihood for ordinary and working people.
