BNP Chairperson Tarique Rahman addressed an election rally in Bogura on Thursday afternoon, calling on supporters to pray so that they can take pride in his leadership. Speaking at the historic Altafunnesa field, he urged the people of Bogura to stand by him mentally and morally, promising to lead Bangladesh toward a stronger and better future if given their support.

Rahman emphasized the importance of unity, echoing the message of late President Ziaur Rahman that national development requires collective effort. He said that if his party forms the next government, decisions on employment and business will be based on merit, not regional favoritism. He also recalled his previous work from 2001 to 2006 to make Bogura a model district and pledged to expand that model nationwide if given the opportunity.

Highlighting the upcoming election scheduled for the 12th, Rahman described it as crucial for determining the country’s direction and reaffirmed the need to restore democratic governance through collective effort.
