BNP Secretary Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Monday (19 August) said India cannot win the love of the Bangladeshi people by providing shelter to Bangladesh’s 'enemy' Sheikh Hasina, who was forced to flee the country.
Speaking at a discussion meeting, he urged the country’s people to support the interim government, led by Professor Muhammad Yunus, by providing their full backing to get the country back on track.
BNP leader said on that time “I want to make it clear that India cannot earn the love of the Bangladeshi people by sheltering the enemy of Bangladesh who was forced to escape from the country. I don’t believe that will happen,”
He added, it is now the duty of BNP leaders and activists to patiently embrace the new chapter of the country that has begun so that no one can undermine the victory achieved through a student-led mass movement.
Fakhrul accused the Awami League of conspiring from New Delhi to undermine the freedom achieved by ousting the autocratic ruler Hasina.
The BNP leader said the sons of Bangladesh brought the second independence of the country by sacrificing their blood. “We can’t destroy it. One fascism is gone; we cannot import a new fascism. I am talking about neo-fascism because the Awami League is conspiring, sitting in Delhi, to foil this (victory of the people).”
He warned that those who are indulging in various misdeeds to outshine people’s victory are not patriots; “They’re traitors. You (BNP leaders and workers) must resist them and defeat them through another struggle.”
