BNP has no room for indiscipline: Khasru

Addressing a rally at New Market area in Chattogram to mark the first anniversary of July Uprising, Khasru made it clear that indiscipline and factionalism will not be tolerated within the party.

“There is no place for any usurper or extortionist in the BNP. Five to six thousand people have already been expelled. No one will survive without disciplined politics. ‘Brother politics’ will not work—only BNP politics will,” he declared.

Khasru said the election announcement had brought a sense of relief to the public, but warned that anti-democratic elements remain active. “Even after the fall of Sheikh Hasina, certain groups are trying to run the country by sidelining the people. The people of this country will not accept that,” he said.

He also said, “We have defeated fascism under the leadership of Tarique Rahman. Now we have to take the country forward on the path of democratic politics. We have to go door to door and earn the trust of the people.”

BNP Central Organising Secretary Mahbuber Rahman Shamim also addressed the rally, noting that the chief adviser has announced elections will be held by February. “People are now eager to vote. If we remain united, BNP will win by a huge margin,” he said.

Chattogram City Corporation Mayor Shahadat Hossain said the country’s independence and democracy are secure in BNP’s hands. “BNP will return to power under the leadership of Tarique Rahman with the people’s mandate,” he added.

Among others, central leaders Mir Md. Helal Uddin, Harun Or Rashid, AM Nazim Uddin, Abul Hashem Bakkar, Abu Sufian, Hummam Quader Chowdhury, Tariqul Islam Tenzing, and Idris Mia were present.

The rally was presided over by Metropolitan Member Secretary Nazimur Rahman and led by Southern Member Secretary Helal Uddin and Joint Convener of the City Committee Shawkat Azam Khawaja, reports UNB.
