Tarique questions reforms talks as a tactic to delay elected govt

He asks BNP leaders, workers to continue movement to establish democracy

BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman has raised concerns over whether the continued emphasis on reforms is being used as a pretext to delay the establishment of a people's government.

"We notice that some people are prolonging all kinds of processes by talking about reforms, reforms. Today, we have to see whether this (harping on reforms) is a conspiracy. If this process is prolonged on the plea of reforms, then the country's problems will multiply," he said on Wednesday.

The BNP leader said this while addressing a programme at Saber Pilot High School field of Songazi in Feni through a virtual platform.

The event was arranged on the occasion of providing a new house as a gift from Tarique Rahman to the family of Sonagazi Upazila's slain Juba Dal leader Mohammad Masud.

Tarique said the people's government must be established to address various existing problems like commodity price-hike, unemployment problem, poor education system and poor law and order condition - in line with the public expectation.

"The sooner we can establish a people's government, the sooner we will be able to lead Bangladesh on the path to prosperity," he said.

Movement to continue until people's government establishment:
The BNP acting chairman asked the BNP leaders and activists to take a promise not to stop their struggle and movement until the dignity of Masud and others who were killed by the previous dictator regimes and the people's rule are established.

"Our struggle will not stop; rather our movement will continue until the people's rule is established �.. Our movement will continue until that democracy is established," he said.

Tarique said the rule of democracy for the people of Bangladesh must be established in a bid to pay due respect to the souls of those who were martyred during the movement against the dictatorship.

BNP vice chairman Abdul Awal Mintoo, senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi, joint secretary general Shahid Uddin Chowdhury Annie and BNP Chairperson's advisory council member Zainul Abedin Farroque, among others, spoke on the occasion. �UNB
