BNP Chairperson Tarique Rahman has pledged that his party will prioritize youth employment, agricultural and infrastructure development, and the rehabilitation of slum dwellers if it returns to power. He made these commitments on Friday night at an election rally in Dhaka’s Vashantek area, emphasizing the need to rebuild national institutions weakened under autocratic rule and to ensure accountability through elected representatives.

Rahman outlined several initiatives, including a special card and easy loan facilities for farmers, as well as training and education programs to develop skilled manpower among youth. He also promised employment opportunities and a family card program for women, alongside effective measures to improve the living standards of slum residents. Addressing the crowd, he urged citizens to elect representatives who would listen to public concerns and work toward solutions.

The rally was attended by senior BNP leaders, including his wife Dr. Zubaida Rahman, Nazrul Islam Khan, and other party officials. Before his speech, Rahman spoke with local residents from various professions and assured them that their problems would be addressed if his party came to power.
