BNP leader Fazlur Rahman has asserted that the national election must take place within the next six months, and candidates under the ‘Sheaf of Paddy’ symbol will secure 80% of the vote. Speaking at a street rally in Itna, he dismissed comparisons between the Awami League’s ‘Boat’ symbol and the BNP’s ‘Sheaf of Paddy,’ stating, “Sheikh Hasina and Khaleda Zia are not the same. We will accept whoever the people elect.” Drawing a historical parallel, he remarked, “Yahya Khan did not honor the election results, which led to the deaths of three million people. Bangladesh still lacks true democracy.” Fazlur Rahman also criticized the government for continuously delaying the election, alleging that excuses are being made to push back the polls indefinitely. He further accused Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus of influencing statements through Rizwana Hasan, stating, “What Yunus himself cannot say, he makes Rizwana say on his behalf.”
