BNP leader Amir Khosru Mahmud Chowdhury criticized the government for announcing the budget without consulting political parties. Speaking at a press conference, he denounced the imposition of taxes on education, calling it unjustified. He pledged that a future BNP government would eliminate education-related taxes.

He added, “With inflation soaring and incomes declining, raising taxes will only burden the public. The budget should prioritize improving people's living standards, not widening inequality.”
