Bangladesh Nationalist Party secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Wednesday said all democratic rights of people were usurped through killing, enforced disappearance and repression across the country.
Fakhrul urged all have to get united and forge a movement to restore people’s rights and democracy.
The BNP secretary general came up with the statements while addressing a joint preparatory meeting of Dhaka city BNP at its Nayapaltan office in the capital.
The meeting was organised to make successful the May Day workers’ rally of Jatiyatabadi Sramik Dal, labour front of BNP, scheduled to be held at Suhrawady Udyan on May 1.  BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia is scheduled to attend the rally.
Fakhrul said there was no democracy in the country and people were becoming victims of repression of the incumbent ‘unelected’ government which clung to power by ‘force’.
He said the rally was going to be held on May Day when workers were deprived of their due rights.
Fakhrul expressed hope that leaders and activists from each unit of Dhaka city BNP would spontaneously join the workers’ rally.
Presided over by city BNP convener Mirza Abbas, city BNP leaders Abdul Awal Mintoo, Syed Moazzem Hossain Alal and   Abdus Salam, among others, were present.
