BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman has urged the people and political parties to stay alert and watch closely whether any group, with the support of a section of the interim government, is trying to create a planned situation to derail the upcoming election.
Speaking virtually at a discussion yesterday, he also said the concerns raised by many over the interim government’s capacity to hold the national election can no longer be overlooked.
“If you listen to what people are saying on social media and in different places, it seems that some are trying to create a planned or deliberate situation in the country, possibly with the help of a section of the interim government. This question is now in the minds of many people,” Tarique said.
He also mentioned that some recent brutal and unexpected incidents have raised serious questions among the public about the interim government’s ability to manage such situations.
“Whether the interim government is truly capable of holding an election is now being questioned by dif-ferent quarters. These concerns can no longer be dismissed as isolated comments,” the BNP leader added.
“I also call upon the people, all democratic political parties, and those involved in the movement to stay alert and closely observe whether anyone is trying to delay the national election beyond the possible timeline promised by the interim government,” he said.
Private university teachers and students organized the program at Krishibid Institution Bangladesh (KIB) in the capital to honor the contributions of private university teachers, students, and the martyrs of the July-August mass uprising.
