A political party conspiring against BNP: Mirza Abbas
We have regained our right to vote, and now it is time to exercise that right,” he said, urging everyone to work in unity for the upcoming national election
As the people of this country "have begun to taste democracy after 17 years", a political party is engaged in a conspiracy against both the BNP and the country, BNP Standing Committee member Mirza Abbas said today (30 November).
"They are backed by domestic and foreign allies and are trying to push the people of this country toward an uncertain future," Abbas said while addressing a doa mahfil held at a community centre in the capital's Nayapaltan, organised to pray for the speedy recovery of BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia.
"They are attempting to mislead people religiously and misguide our mothers and sisters," he added.

Highlighting the political role of BNP's past leadership, Abbas said, "Had our leader Ziaur Rahman not introduced democracy, and had Begum Khaleda Zia not nurtured it, today's electoral possibility would never have existed."
Abbas added that the movements over the past 17 years under the leadership of Khaleda Zia and at times Tarique Rahman have yielded benefits that are now reaching the public.
"We have regained our right to vote, and now it is time to exercise that right," he said, urging everyone to work in unity for the upcoming national election.
