BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi has alleged that extensive conspiracies are still being woven against the government. Speaking on Monday at the BNP central office in Naya Paltan during a food distribution event for the poor organized by the Bangladesh Nationalist Rickshaw-Van-Auto Drivers’ Association, Rizvi claimed that not only propaganda but also a dangerous mob culture is being created against the government.

Rizvi emphasized that since the time of late President Ziaur Rahman, the BNP has been a government of employment creation, not unemployment. He credited Ziaur Rahman for initiating overseas employment opportunities and said that under Tarique Rahman’s leadership, no one in the country would remain jobless. He also promised rehabilitation for evicted street vendors. Rizvi criticized the Awami League’s 1972–1975 rule, alleging widespread poverty and misrule, and accused the current government of laundering vast sums of public money.

He warned that if old fascism resurfaces through any loophole, democracy and sovereignty would be at risk. The event was also addressed by several BNP leaders and concluded with food distribution among the poor.
