BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Monday stated that the party had fundamentally transformed Bangladesh’s politics and economy by establishing multi-party democracy against one-party rule. Speaking after paying homage at Ziaur Rahman’s grave, Fakhrul said, “Attempts to destroy BNP have been made repeatedly, but like a phoenix, it has always risen again. With people’s mandate, BNP will build a prosperous nation.” He added that holding a fair election in February remains the greatest challenge. “BNP has fully cooperated with the reform process,” Fakhrul said. Notably, the anniversary is being observed this year in a relatively favorable political climate after nearly two decades.
