BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, demanding elections at a reasonable time, said that a reasonable time does not mean too much time. The sooner elections are held, the better off the country will be.

He said that the power should be transferred to the people through the elections by carrying out urgent reforms. If necessary, we will protest on the streets again to establish democracy.

He said this at the memorial meeting of BNP leader ASM Hannan Shah at the Kapasia Government Pilot High School grounds in Gazipur on Friday (September 27) afternoon.

Secretary General of BNP said that even if Sheikh Hasina escaped, the crisis is not over. People believe that democracy should be established through free elections. He urged to vote as soon as possible by creating an environment suitable for elections.

Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said that he will not tolerate such excuses and said that Tariq Rahman should be given an opportunity to return to the country after withdrawing all the cases. If the cases filed against BNP activists are not withdrawn, there will never be a neutral situation.

He said, Awami League is still making various conspiracies. It wants to destabilize the country by plotting. Awami League can create various unstable situations around Durga Puja. Everyone should be alert. Hindu brothers are citizens of this country. I assure you, any incident will be dealt with unitedly.

Mirza Fakhrul commented that he got a chance to catch his breath after defeating the Awami League government in the student uprising.
