BNP leader Shahid Uddin Annie reaffirmed the party’s commitment to judicial and institutional reform. “Reform is a continuous process. Tarique Rahman introduced a 31-point reform plan. If BNP returns to power, we will continue with visible reforms.” He criticized the Awami League’s legacy as one of fascism and plunder. Reflecting on the July movement, Annie described it not as a student-led protest but a full-fledged people’s uprising, drawing parallels with the movement that brought down Ershad's regime.
