Bangladesh Nationalist Party acting Chairman Tarique Rahman on Tuesday said that if BNP was voted to power, it would establish an accountability-based government for the people.
‘If we go to power, we want to form a government which will remain accountable to the people and then we will be able to resolve all problems of the country in phases,’ he told a training workshop on ‘31-point proposals for repairing state structure and public-engagement’ on virtual platform at Fun Town Park Auditorium in Cumilla.
Tarique urged the party supporters to reach reforms outline to the people all over the country without keeping it only among BNP leaders and workers.
‘If anyone has any objections or suggestions over the 31 points, it will be evaluated. We announced the 31-point outline when many people did not want to believe that dictatorial regime would be ousted,’ BNP acting chairman said.
He said that if BNP went to power, various infrastructures of the country would be named after the martyrs of the July-August revolution.
The fascist AL regime made their efforts to instil corruption in every nook and cranny of the society, he mentioned.
Tarique underscored the need for making the children aware about the menace of corruption from the primary school level in order to save the country from corruption. He also stressed on creating skilled human resources through modernisation of education system.
Students should be made proficient in English along with other subjects as well as they should be encouraged to play sports, he said. ‘We want every citizen from primary level to intermediate to develop into a skilled citizen. The citizens of the country should be trained and developed in such a way that they do not get stuck anywhere in the country or abroad and they can establish themselves as skilled manpower all over the world.’
In response to a question, he underlined the need for improving country’s public transport system, saying that coordinated efforts should be taken to deal with traffic congestion, a major problem of the country especially in the capital Dhaka and Chattogram.
BNP standing committee member Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain inaugurated the workshop with the party’s organising secretary Selim Bhuiyan (Cumilla organisational division) in chair.
