BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said MPs from his party are ready to resign from the current parliament as their main goal is to restore democracy in the country.
He said, “We would like to straightly say that no election will be held in the country under Sheikh Hasina and without a caretaker government. Our only demand is the resignation of this regime,” reports UNB.
The government must dissolve the parliament, he asserted.
Mirza Fakhrul made the remarks while addressing an anti-government rally in Rangpur on Saturday.
As part of the party’s planned rallies at the division level, the Rangpur city unit BNP organised the programme on Rangpur Collector Eidgah ground.
Thousands of leaders and activists of the BNP and its associate bodies joined the rally, defying a transport strike.
He said, “Our MPs Harun, Rumeen and Zahid are ready to resign (from parliament) as per the directive of the party. The government must hand over power to a caretaker government which will form a new Election Commission and a fresh election will be held under it.”
The senior leader of the party said a national government will be formed after a credible election to repair the state, economy and politics that have been destroyed by the government.
