BNP leader Nazrul Islam Khan stated that the BNP believes in production and development, not in shutting things down. He affirmed that if the BNP forms the government, it will work to reopen the 25 jute mills that have been closed and pay off all outstanding wages owed to the workers. He remarked that although there has been development in the country, it hasn’t been inclusive; and democracy, too, hasn’t been for all. He noted that over the past 15 years, the foundations of the nation have been systematically dismantled, prompting the BNP to announce a 31-point reform agenda. Khan urged the public to judge political parties based on their history and claimed that for true progress, the people would ultimately choose the BNP. In the same event, BOBY Hajjaj stated that Tarique Rahman’s 31-point reform plan represents a vision for future politics. He criticized the NCP for obstructing progress despite lacking even party registration, yet still challenging the Election Commission.
