GOP leader Rashed Khan criticized the government's decision to rename "Shaheed Tajuddin Ahmad Government Degree College" to "Kapasia Government Degree College." In a statement, he said, “This is an unjustified move. Tajuddin Ahmad, Bangladesh’s first Prime Minister, made invaluable contributions to the nation. Disrespecting his legacy will not erase his name from history.” He further wrote, “Everyone must be given their due place in history. Even Sheikh Mujib oppressed and marginalized Tajuddin Ahmad — he must not be dishonored again.”
