Dr. Rashid Ahmed Hossaini, a director of the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA), claimed that the new generation will not allow the Awami League to sustain its existence in Bangladesh. Speaking to journalists in Laksam-Manoharganj, Cumilla, after distributing leaflets supporting BNP leader Tarique Rahman’s 31-point reform plan, Hossaini criticized the ruling party’s 17-year rule. He also warned that infiltrators within the BNP were damaging the party’s image and urged leaders to identify and take legal action against them. Hossaini further dismissed the Awami League’s lockdown initiatives as ineffective, saying fear tactics would not work. Several BNP, Jubo Dal, and Chhatra Dal leaders were present during the campaign across local markets.
