BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi on Sunday demanded the unconditional release of the party’s detained leaders and activists before Eid-ul-Fitr.         

He made the call at a press conference at the BNP’s Nayapaltan central office, UNB reported.   

“People are suffering due to oppression by BAKSAL-2 (The Bangladesh Krishak Sramik Awami League) government. Ruling Awami League is enjoying all facilities solely to hold meeting, rally in the country whereas other political parties have no right to do that,” he claimed. 

They grabbed the state power by contaminating the electoral process, Rizvi alleged further adding that Awami terrorism has exceeded all of its limit. 

“By burying the principles of democracy, Awami league has made the country as a totalitarian state. In this situation, the feeling of joy for Eid has disappeared from people’s mind,” he added.
