BNP Secretary-General Mirza Fakhrul Islam AlamgirBNP chief Khaleda Zia has been jailed unjustly on politically motivated charges, says party Secretary-General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir before adding "the government will find no where to hide if Khaleda Zia is out of jail."

He made the remarks on Friday at discussion organized by pro-BNP think tank National Research Center (NRC) at National Press Club.

Addressing BNP's leaders and activists, he said, the party's previous decision not to join parliament has been changed with a goal in mind. “We cannot lose hope until we have achieved our goals,” he added.

“During the anti-Ershad movement, the coalition BNP made—joining with Awami League and other parties—was a necessity for the time. Despite being a supporter of the Presidential form of government, Begum Khaleda Zia agreed to Awami League’s Parliamentary form of government only to topple Erhad,” he said.

A photo exhibition on Khaleda Zia’s long political life, achievements, and sacrifices has been installed as a part of the event.
