BNP leader Syed Emran Saleh Prince stated that the BNP is not as fragile as water on a taro leaf that disappears with a touch—it is as solid as the Himalayas and deeply rooted in public support. He criticized misinformation campaigns against the party, saying such tactics won't mislead the people. Prince noted that some leaders of emerging parties are overconfident, suggesting they’ll win 300 of 400 seats in the next election, leaving only 50 to 100 for the BNP. "If they are so confident, they should push for a neutral election within three months," he said. Prince also challenged the narrative that people no longer recognize BNP's ‘Sheaf of Paddy’ symbol, stating that the next election will prove the symbol’s continued popularity.

NCP leader Hasnat Abdullah has exposed alleged corrupt practices within Bangladesh’s Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC). Posting three video clips on Facebook as evidence, Hasnat claimed that individuals are being forced to pay 100,000 Taka to obtain clearance certificates, even when there are no corruption allegations against them.
According to Hasnat, the ACC’s Director General Akhtar and his Deputy Director recently demanded this bribe from Mahmuda Mitu under threat of official action. Mahmuda Mitu joined the Red Crescent after August 5. Hasnat accused the ACC of currently investigating corruption cases dating back to the Awami League’s tenure but absurdly trying to shift blame onto present officials without naming those involved.
He concluded, “We demand justice against the ACC’s corruption. Did the people of Bangladesh sacrifice their lives in July only for officials to extort 100,000 Taka as ‘tea money’?”
