At a press conference Monday afternoon, Mirza Fakhrul stated the party’s position on various issues, including the Padma Bridge, a rally by government officials to protest the vandalism of the Bangabandhu sculpture and the relocation of the Rohingya to Bhasanchar.
He said: “What is happening in the country now is looting. This is a complete blender, on behalf of development.
“What we are saying is that in all the places where they look for profit, they look for profit. They make the profit, their economic benefit. For example, they are building houses, building overpasses, building megaprojects, committing mega corruption.”
Stating that no sector of the country is ‘in good shape’ now, Mirza Fakhrul said: “The banking system in the economic sector is totally collapsed, this is not my thing. Tomorrow we have a statement from Wahid Uddin Mahmud (Professor of Economics), Dr. Saleh Uddin Ahmed (former Governor of the Bank of Bangladesh) also has a statement that a terrible situation is being created in the current system. Those who are neutral economists are analyzing. “
Criticizing the statements of the ruling party leaders on the Padma bridge, Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said: “We are always in favor of development, our party is in favor of development, of creativity.” We never do negative politics. We do positive politics. We want to call the truth the truth, the lie the lie, we want to call white white, black black. As soon as they say that, their bodies get irritated.
“It just came to our notice then. You say BNP won’t go up, it will go down. Like it’s their wealth. It’s slashing people’s pockets, but they’re taking it away. Everyone pays taxes here. Where it was paid. a tax, a tax of 10 rupees is paid. “
Stating that the country stands on the basis of the development made by the BNP, the party secretary general said: “The beginning of the development of this country is with the BNP. When the martyr president Ziaur Rahman took over the country after the change of marijuana in 1975, the first thing he launched was economic reform and development. Development is not just the development of a few people, development is the development of ordinary people, farmers, workers, working people. Work on that Today, Bangladesh stands on the foundations that have been laid.
“The remittances that today come from abroad, the process of initiating this remittance is from the time of Mr. Ziaur Rahman. The garment she is on today is also entirely based on the days of the martyr president Ziaur Rahman. The revolution in agriculture that overcame famine during the Awami League regime in 1974 and achieved self-sufficiency in agriculture in 1977 also occurred during the time of Mr. Ziaur Rahman. So today, building a bridge, building a highway, we believe that this is definitely not development. Development is how much the common man’s financial situation has changed, that’s the most important thing. “
When asked about the BNP’s silence on the opposition of Hefazat-e-Islam leaders to the installation of the Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman sculpture, Mirza Fakhrul said: “We have two main challenges at the moment. One is saving the crown people’s lives, provide vaccinations and treat those who have been infected with corona, to give their lives.
“The second is to liberate democracy, bring in the country’s leader Begum Khaleda Zia. These are our challenges.”
‘Country under the one-party regime’
In response to the participation of senior administration officials and law enforcement agencies, lower court judges and officials from various organizations in the protest against the vandalism of the Bangabandhu sculpture last Saturday, Mirza Fakhrul said: become a one-party government country. Those who review history will see that much the same has happened since 1982. Especially since the Bakshal announcement, they were made compulsory to join Bakshal in accordance with all state institutions. We see a photo of him, worrying, that the judges are doing the same.
“The fact is that the entire state apparatus is in a one-party government system, which we call the state of mind, and they are doing it to create that state of mind. They are doing it to divert the core issues. “
He said: “What is the challenge facing the nation today? Mainly two. One is to protect people from covid and the other is to collect vaccines. Here our Minister of Health gave a statement yesterday that has nothing to do with reality. That is why he has been lying from the beginning.
“The vision of this government is to stay in power at any cost. That is why everything in the state has to use them. It is about democracy, this is their leaf service. They have to maintain the label of democracy to justify all their misdeeds, deprivation of human rights. There is talk of democracy, the opposite is done. “
‘Rohingya moved to Bhasanchar’
BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said the Rohingya would not be relocated to Bhasanchar amid objections from various international organizations, including the UN.
He described the transfer process as a “clear example of the government’s diplomatic and political failure” in the general trial.
Fakhrul said: “The Bhasanchar project has been removed in a desperate attempt to divert people’s attention and create a new festival of corruption, as diplomatic activities on the repatriation of the Rohingya have stalled. We believe that the government has resorted to this tactic to cover up its boundless diplomatic failure. “
“We believe that Rohingya refugees are temporarily sheltering in Bangladesh for a short time,” he said. The construction of these permanent houses in Bhasanchar will create new obstacles to solve the main problem. The permanent infrastructure that has been and is being built in Bhasanchar for Rohingya refugees may lead to the perception among the Myanmar authorities and their support groups that Bangladesh is permanently accepting the Rohingya by providing them with sustainable housing.
“Despite objections from the international community, the relocation of Rohingya refugees to Bhasanchar could exacerbate the main crisis. On the other hand, the propaganda cell controlled by the Myanmar military and the Myanmar government can claim diplomatically that Rohingya refugees who have taken refuge in Bangladesh are ethnically Bengali and have been assimilated by making permanent arrangements for their stay in Bangladesh.
“This will encourage Myanmar’s extremist Buddhist nationalist groups and the military to carry out ethnic cleansing campaigns, and may hasten the deportation of the remaining 1.5 million Rohingya still in Arakan.”
He suggested increasing multidimensional pressure on Myanmar to resolve the Rohingya problem with everyone, without “unnecessary delay” in the name of the Rohingya relocation to Bhasanchar.
The BNP secretary general said: “This return should not be limited to a paper agreement, but should lead to the effective implementation of bilateral and multilateral agreements.” The United Nations, regional bodies and world powers must ensure their respective roles in solving the Rohingya crisis. The international community, including the United Nations, must realize the limitations of Bangladesh through effective diplomatic efforts. “
He said the Rohingya could play a role in solving the problem if “a democratic system of government is established” in the country.
