Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Dr. Shafiqur Rahman stated, “We aim to restructure the state in a way that guarantees the rights of all citizens.” He criticized past governments for serving narrow personal and political interests. “Jamaat has always worked against the current,” he said, adding that their path has never been easy—especially since the 1972 ban and the judicial executions of party leaders. Rejecting revenge, he said, “Through sacrifice, we seek to bring positive change to a corrupt system. We may be oppressed, but we refuse to become oppressors.”
