Today is the most scandalous day in the history of Bangladesh: Fakhrul

Dhaka: BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said: “We are very saddened and ashamed when we see that our leaders and workers were unable to attend this rally.” Today is the most scandalous day in the history of Bangladesh.

On this day in 2016, the Awami League has consolidated its power by stealing votes using the state machinery to establish a one-party government. Today is that scandalous day. The day the voting rights of the people in this country were killed.

The BNP general secretary said this while addressing a protest rally on the occasion of the Day of the Death of Democracy on December 30 in front of the National Press Club at 12 noon on Wednesday (December 30).

The BNP general secretary said that this democratic struggle is not just for BNP, it is a struggle of all parties. All must unite and establish a democratic government. In the new year, the people must unite and take an oath to establish a government.

“This government has turned the entire country into a prison. Everything has been taken hostage and a suffocating situation has been created. They must be forced to hold neutral elections. This electoral commission is lying. Laughing, the choice has been neutral. All democratic forces must unite and fight against them. So that the government of the people can be established in this country. ‘

Mirza Fakhrul said they are looting. It has established a kingdom of looting. The banking system has been destroyed by bank robbery and money smuggling. The people of Bangladesh want democracy. We have fought for a democratic state, against corruption. For the free expression of people. Today many newspapers have been closed. Journalists have struggled to speak freely. But today the Awami League has destroyed everything. There is no alternative to the movement to save the country from this situation.

BNP Deputy Secretary General Habibunnabi Khan Sohel said there was no vote in the country two years ago. The vote was stolen overnight. The people’s right to vote has been taken away. Today Awami League is celebrating the day of the victory of democracy. We do not know who will receive the corona vaccine, who will administer the vaccine or inject water into the body. If any kind of corruption is committed with the corona vaccine, fire will rage across Bangladesh.

Leaders and activists from BNP Central and the Dhaka metropolis addressed the rally.
