Zainul Abedin Faruk, adviser to the party's chairperson, has said that the masterminds of the July movement are Tarique Rahman, BNP and the 12-party alliance.

He said this while speaking as the chief guest at the Bangladesh LDP representative meeting at Dhaka Reporters Unity (DRU) on Sunday (October 27) afternoon.

Stating that efforts are being made to create a political crisis, Zainul Abedin Faruk said, "We, the leaders of the anti-discrimination movement, were on the streets. The masterminds were Tarique Rahman, BNP and the 12-party alliance."

Addressing Dr. Yunus, the chief adviser to the interim government, he said, "We have immense faith in you. To keep that faith, we should discuss with the political parties and announce the election date quickly."

Stating that he does not want an election commission like the Awal Commission, Zainul Abedin Faruk said, "A commission that wakes up and announces the results. We want an election that will be held on the day of the election, not at night."

He further said, we think that another reactionary group is trying to muddy the current political scenario of Bangladesh. An indication of this is the attempt to create another political crisis in front of Bangabhaban.

Addressing Sheikh Hasina, this BNP leader said, you have emptied the chests of many mothers. That is why you have left the anti-discrimination student movement. You have plotted to make Bangladesh a state of India while in power until 2040. How can the Modi government of India shelter the murderer of thousands of Bangladeshis is the question of the people of Bangladesh.

The newly elected president of Bangladesh LDP, Shahadat Hossain Selim, said, many are dreaming of coming to power by creating a constitutional vacuum, we will not let that happen. We want an election; we have fought for the election for 15 years. You have no right to touch the constitution, if you touch it, the situation will be very miserable.

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has urged the government not to take any hasty decision on the issue of removing the president.

He made these remarks after paying homage to the 46th founding anniversary of the Jubo Dal at the mausoleum of martyred President Ziaur Rahman in Sher-e-Bangla Nagar in the capital at 11:30 am on Sunday (October 27).

Mirza Fakhrul Islam said, no hasty decision can be taken on the removal of the president. Everything must be done according to constitutional rules.

Regarding the election, he said, we had said earlier that if the revolution of Bangladesh has to be consolidated to bring home the fruits of the mass uprising, then national unity and no hasty decision can be taken, we think it should be done through the constitutional process. For that, an environment for impartial elections must be created as soon as possible after the reforms. The ownership of the country must be returned to them through the right of the people to vote. There is no other option.

Asked if he fears a conspiracy if the election is delayed, he said, "We have repeatedly said that elections need to be held as soon as possible. Power must be transferred to a constitutional political force."

At the same time, he also commented that national unity is needed so that the results of the coup are not spoiled.

The BNP top leader said, "We have sworn here today to protect our independence at any cost." After a long struggle against the fascist Awami League, we became independent for the second time on August 5. The role of the Jubo Dal in this struggle is undoubtedly significant.

He said, "Despite the illness of the BNP Chairperson, the Jubo Dal has become much stronger than before under the leadership of our leader Tarique Rahman. Its role in the successful outcome of the student-public uprising to protect the sovereignty of this country will remain intact. The Jubo Dal will play a leading role in resisting those who do not want to do good to Bangladesh."

When asked about BNP's position on the issue of the anti-discrimination student movement meeting with you to remove the president, the BNP Secretary General said, "The discussion will be held at the highest forum of BNP. We will clarify our position after the discussion." On the occasion of the 46th founding anniversary of the Jubo Dal, BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, BNP National Standing Committee member Gayeshwar Chandra Roy, the party's Vice Chairman Barkat Ullah Bulu, Chairperson Adviser Moazzem Hossain Alal and other central metropolitan leaders of the Jubo Dal were present.
