Ruhul Kabir Rizvi, Central Senior Joint Secretary General of BNP, said that even in the face of hundreds of tortures by the government of fascist Sheikh Hasina for the past 16 years, the leaders and workers of BNP have not deviated from their principles. BNP has kept Bangladesh under subjugation through hiding in the mirror room, extrajudicial killings and mass arrests, but it did not stop. The activists have continued the movement despite so much oppression. I thank the grassroots workers of BNP. At this time, he called on the interim government to carry out the necessary reforms and hold elections.
He said these things in a speech at a road meeting organized by Lauta Union BNP and its affiliates at Barigram Bazar of Sylhet's Biyanibazar Upazila on Sunday afternoon.
Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said, this movement of students in the world will be a milestone against tyranny in history. During the movement, Sheikh Hasina's government fired indiscriminately on the student crowd with the Petuavahini, Sheikh Hasina did not do any oppression to suppress this movement. We have to protect this new freedom at the cost of so much blood.
He recalled the missing leader of Sylhet, Ilyas Ali, and said that senior leaders like Ilyas Ali have gone missing, and Trinamool activists have not been spared from this torture. In his speech, he remembered the 10 martyrs in the anti-discrimination movement in Biyanibazar and Golapganj and highlighted the sacrifice of the late BNP leader Kamar Uddin, a son of Biyanibazar, to BNP.
