Dr Abdul Moyeen Khan, a BNP Standing Committee member and Member of Parliament for Narsingdi-2, said the BNP does not engage in politics for power but works for the rights and welfare of the country’s people.
He made the remarks while speaking as the chief guest at an iftar gathering organised by the Narsingdi district unit of BNP on Tuesday evening.
Dr Moyeen Khan said democracy had effectively been buried in the country over the past 17 years. However, the student and public mass uprising on 5 August 2024 not only inspired people in Bangladesh but also encouraged pro-democracy supporters abroad.
He added that democracy has returned to the country as a result of that movement, with the BNP playing the most significant role under the leadership of Tarique Rahman in restoring democratic governance.
The event was chaired by Khayrul Kabir Khokon, president of the Narsingdi District BNP and MP for Narsingdi Sadar, and moderated by District BNP General Secretary Monjur Elahi.
Engineer Ashraf Uddin Bokul, assistant secretary for science and technology affairs of the BNP Central Committee, and Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami’s Narsingdi district ameer Maulana Mosleh Uddin also spoke.
Deputy Commissioner Mohammad Anowar Hossain, Superintendent of Police Abdul Al Faruk, and Narsingdi Chamber of Commerce and Industry President Rashedul Hasan Rintu were present, along with other political, social and administrative figures.
