BNP senior leader Nazrul Islam Khan has claimed that no corruption charges have been proven against acting party chairman Tarique Rahman over the past 17 years. He assured that legal action will be taken against any party member involved in wrongdoing, and internal disciplinary measures are ongoing. Khan stated that the struggle to dismantle fascist rule continues, as citizens have yet to elect a government of their own choosing. He warned that some factions are attempting to disrupt opposition unity, but said the people can now distinguish between pro-democracy fighters and those who support authoritarianism.
