BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has drawn a striking comparison between Nobel Laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus and late President Ziaur Rahman, the party’s founder. “When Professor Yunus spoke, it felt as though I was hearing President Ziaur Rahman’s voice,” Fakhrul said, noting that Yunus’s vision for a democratic, prosperous, and corruption-free Bangladesh reflected Zia’s ideals. He stressed that Bangladesh’s youth will play a decisive role in shaping the nation’s future and highlighted BNP’s openness to embracing their modern outlook. “The people of Bangladesh are inherently resilient. They know how to unite and fight in times of crisis. July proved that spirit, and BNP will continue to act in the interest of the people,” he added.
