The Bangladesh Nationalist Party on Monday said that free, fair, and impartial elections as early as possible were necessary to give the people鈥檚 power back to the people of the country.
The party senior joint secretary general, Ruhul Kabir Rizvi, made the remark at a press conference at the party鈥檚 Naya Paltan central office in the capital.
He alleged that the previous fascist government failed to prevent dengue or Covid-19 as they did not care about people鈥檚 lives.
Since the interim government was formed through the student-led mass uprising, measures should have been taken to prevent dengue, he said.
He, however, said that though the interim government had passed two months in office, it had not done significant work on public grievances.
The BNP spokesperson expressed hope that dengue would be prevented through the joint efforts of the interim government, the political parties of the country and the people from all walks of life.
BNP chairperson鈥檚 advisor Amanullah Aman, addressing a discussion at the National Press Club in Dhaka, said that the failure of the interim government could delay the restoration of democracy and establishment of people鈥檚 right to vote.
Bangladesh Youth Forum organised the discussion on the occasion of the death anniversary of Saifuddin Ahmed Moni, one of the key organisers of the 1990s student-mass uprising.
