Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir indirectly criticized Jamaat-e-Islami, saying the group failed to play a visible role in opposing Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s government over the past decade. Speaking at an event organized by the Islamic Foundation at the Institution of Diploma Engineers in Dhaka, Fakhrul recalled that late President Ziaur Rahman had given Jamaat the opportunity to re-enter politics under the name Islamic Democratic League (IDL) before collaborating with BNP. He alleged that Jamaat members had infiltrated the Dhaka University Central Students' Union (DUCSU) elections disguised as members of the ruling Awami League’s student wing, the Chhatra League. Fakhrul contrasted this with BNP’s direct political struggle, emphasizing the party’s sacrifices, including false cases against 6 million supporters, the killing of 20,000 activists, and the disappearance of 1,700 leaders and MPs. He reaffirmed BNP’s commitment to establishing a democratic state.
