At a Youth Day event, Tarique Rahman emphasized the public’s desire for genuine political transformation rather than mere promises. He outlined BNP’s future focus on employment-driven politics and called for courage and integrity to avoid vendettas, declaring Bangladesh’s prosperity inevitable if its population can be transformed into productive manpower. BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir stated attempts are underway to tarnish BNP by linking it to wrongdoing. He reaffirmed BNP’s commitment to ensuring free and fair elections as the main opposition party, aiming to eliminate allegations of vote-rigging similar to those leveled against the Awami League.
