BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir speaking to the media after paying homage to BNP founder Ziaur Rahman on Saturday (Jan 19).The Awami League victory rally is aimed at diverting people from the overt vote snatching of Dec 30, said BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir.
His remarks came on Saturday (Jan 19) while he was paying homage to BNP founder Ziaur Rahman at his memorial, on the occasion of his birth anniversary.
Fakhrul said that by rigging the polls the AL has faced a moral defeat and it has disconnected the ruling party from the people.
Responding to queries about a rift in the Oikya Front unity, Fakhrul said, “There is no dispute amongst us. Oikya Front is there, so is the 20-party-alliance.
Talking about the party founder, Fakhrul said that Ziaur Rahman was a staunch believer in democracy, independence, freedom of speech and vote and that BNP will do anything in its power to free their incarcerated chief Khaleda Zia and restore democracy to the country.
