BNP Acting Chairperson Tarique Rahman stated that the party welcomes initiatives by the youth to form new political parties, provided the process is transparent. Speaking virtually at a conference on January 25, he highlighted the disenfranchisement of youth over the past 15 years and their growing interest in politics. He emphasized that elections are crucial for political empowerment and warned against controversies that strengthen fascist elements. Tarique also urged BNP members to remain vigilant and prioritize public welfare amid rising costs and market syndicates.
