BNP Vice Chairman and Feni-3 constituency candidate Abdul Awal Mintoo declared that there is no place in the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) for those who create disorder or engage in extortion. Speaking during his election campaign in Daganbhuiyan, Feni, Mintoo praised BNP’s founding leader Ziaur Rahman and former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia, accusing the current government of persecuting them through false cases. He said acting chairman Tarique Rahman has instructed that no corrupt or violent individuals should hold leadership positions in the party. Mintoo also alleged that the ruling Awami League government has harassed him with fabricated cases and attacks on his properties. During his campaign, clashes broke out between rival BNP factions, injuring several activists, though police and army personnel later restored order. Mintoo pledged to work for local development if elected and reaffirmed his loyalty to the party’s central leadership and its principles.
