Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary General Mia Golam Parwar has called on voters to reject politics of corruption, land grabbing, and extortion, urging them to entrust their votes to honest people. He made the remarks on Saturday during public meetings and yard gatherings in various areas of Atlia Union under Dumuria upazila in Khulna. Parwar warned that if those involved in looting regain power, the lives and property of both Hindus and Muslims would be unsafe.
Recalling his tenure as a Member of Parliament, Parwar said Dumuria was once plagued by severe terrorism, with killings, abductions, and violence occurring daily. He claimed to have fulfilled two election pledges—eliminating terrorism and ensuring transparent development—by implementing development projects worth about Tk 350 crore and publishing detailed accounts. He added that joint forces had arrested many terrorists, while others fled the area.
In the current electoral context, Parwar alleged a conspiracy to return corrupt individuals to power, accusing one candidate of massive corruption, a 13-year court sentence, and links to Hawa Bhaban. Several local Jamaat leaders accompanied him during the campaign.
