BNP Chairman Tarique Rahman on Thursday called on all citizens to exercise their franchise by visiting polling stations and voting for candidates of their choice.
In a post on his verified Facebook page this morning, Tarique Rahman said, “Dear pro-democracy brothers and sisters, I request everyone to exercise their voting rights in a festive and peaceful environment. Vote for whomever you deem fit. Vote according to your own choice, and ensure your state rights and ownership.”
He added, “Insha’Allah, from tomorrow, your Members of Parliament will take on the responsibility of serving you. I will take on the duty of ensuring that every victorious candidate of the sheaf of paddy (Dhaner Shis) properly fulfils their responsibilities.”
The BNP chairman further stated, “The spontaneous participation and affection of the people will, Insha’Allah, ensure the BNP’s victory in a free and fair election. Come, let us all build the country together. Let us ensure the rights and freedom of the people and protect Bangladesh’s sovereignty and dignity. Let us work, build the nation; Bangladesh first.”
