Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami has strongly condemned comments made by Nurul Kabir, editor of the New Age newspaper, during a recent television talk show. In a statement issued Monday, Jamaat’s Assistant Secretary General and head of its publicity division, Advocate Ehsanul Mahbub Zubair, said the remarks were hurtful and based on misinformation. He rejected Kabir’s allegations that Jamaat or its affiliates were involved in violent acts or sought to delay elections for political gain.
Zubair emphasized that Jamaat’s leadership supports holding free and fair elections in February and dismissed claims that the party links religious beliefs with voting behavior. He described Kabir’s comments as undemocratic and divisive, urging responsible journalism and constructive criticism instead. The statement also refuted Kabir’s claim that Jamaat’s political evolution involved hypocrisy, calling such language inappropriate for a senior journalist.
The exchange highlights ongoing tensions between political parties and sections of the media ahead of Bangladesh’s upcoming elections, where issues of faith, democracy, and political legitimacy remain highly sensitive.
