BNP leader Ishraq Hossain has condemned recent remarks by a student leader comparing a "16-year struggle to 7 minutes" as deeply disrespectful to martyrs. Ishraq emphasized that no single group should claim sole credit for a movement and highlighted the sacrifices of leaders who were abducted or killed, including Ilyas Ali, Chowdhury Alam, and others. He warned that if the sacrifices of the fallen are dishonored and patience runs thin, the public will not hesitate to reject their leaders.
