BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir called on citizens and political organizations to oppose groups allegedly attempting to destabilize Bangladesh before a tribunal announces its decision against former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on charges of crimes against humanity. Speaking at an event commemorating political figure Maulana Abdul Hamid Khan Bhasani's death anniversary, Fakhrul warned that certain factions aim to exploit heightened tensions surrounding the case to create disorder.
The opposition leader emphasized that recent student-led movements have opened pathways toward democratic restoration and urged parties to unite around electoral processes. He expressed concern that some actors continue raising obstacles to delay voting despite indications that national elections could occur in late February.
Fakhrul argued that economic conditions and public security will continue deteriorating without an elected administration possessing popular legitimacy. He encouraged political organizations to prioritize the electoral timeline rather than pursuing strategies that might disrupt the transition.
