Terming BNP senior vice chairman Tarique Rahman a good and competent organiser, party acting secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Sunday said evil efforts are on to keep Tarique out of politics.
“A well-crafted evil design is on to keep Tarique out of politics so that no future leadership is created to lead the nationalist forces,” he told a discussion prior to an iftar party.
Jatiyatabadi Krishak Dal arranged the programme at the Jatiya Press Club.
Fakhrul said a vested quarter being envious of his organisational capacity has been carrying out a pernicious campaign against Tarique since 2001. “No allegation brought against him could be proved, but the false campaign is still on.”
Reiterating that Tarique will return home to lead the nation, the BNP leader said the people of the country will bring him back in their own interest to protect their rights and save democracy, no matter what plots are being hatched.”
Fakhrul said Awami League is trying to confuse people by using non-political language as it has become politically bankrupt.
He said the ruling party has not yet come to sense even after facing miserable debacles in the elections to five city corporations. “When the fall starts it can be understood initially. When the boat starts sinking it can’t be understood first. Now the boat is capsizing, there’s no doubt about it. Try to realise it and correct yourself.”
The BNP spokesman alleged that the government scrapped the non-party caretaker system as it had realised that their candidates would lose security money if the next election is held under the system.
He said people have turned back from the government as it could fulfill none of its election pledges.
Criticising the Prime Minister for her recent appeal to people to vote for boat (AL’s election symbol) if they do not want corrupt people to bring to power, Fakhrul said there is hardly any sector from where the ruling party did not plunder
