BNP Chairperson Tarique Rahman has warned that any conspiracy surrounding the upcoming February 12 election will face a strong response. Speaking at an election rally in Nilphamari at 2:07 p.m. on Saturday, he accused an unnamed party of plotting due to fear of defeat and said future politics would focus on rebuilding the country.

During the rally, Rahman outlined several development pledges, including expanding the Nilphamari Export Processing Zone, upgrading Syedpur Airport to international standards, and transforming Nilphamari into an industrial hub. He also promised to initiate a master plan for the Teesta Barrage project if his party comes to power and to provide training programs to enhance women’s economic empowerment and employment.

Rahman announced plans to introduce “Family Cards” and “Agriculture Cards” to help farmers access loans, fertilizers, and pesticides easily. He added that up to Tk 10,000 in agricultural loans would be waived for farmers if BNP candidates win, and the government would repay loans taken from registered NGOs.
