The prime minister is making irrational remarks following her unsuccessful bid to secure international support during her visit abroad, BNP Standing Committee Member Amir Khasru said on Thursday.

"Losing ground domestically, the Prime Minister sought international backing for her government abroad. Returning empty-handed, she is now making irrational comments," stated Amir Khasru while addressing a street rally in Mirsarai, part of BNP's Chattogram divisional campaign.

Urging citizens to prepare for a larger movement to oust the government, Khasru said the Awami League lacks support both domestically and internationally.

"We've embarked on another struggle for liberation, distinct from that of 1971, aiming to restore democracy. We must emerge victorious, regardless of the cost," Amir Khasru told the gathering.

Earlier, in the morning, BNP's road march in the Chattogram division commenced despite persistent rainfall, marking the last day of the party's 17-day programme demanding the reinstatement of the caretaker government system.

Led by BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, the march initiated from Cumilla and held two street rallies in Feni and Mirsarai upazila.

Meanwhile, Chattogram has been experiencing light to moderate rain since Thursday morning. BNP leaders and activists gathered at the Mirsarai rally venue in small processions, undeterred by the adverse weather conditions.

Although the march was anticipated to reach Mirsarai by 3pm, it entered in Mirsarai at 4.30pm. In the interim, local leaders addressed the gathering starting from 10am in the morning.

Simultaneously, law enforcement agencies were observed to be on high alert, deploying special armored vehicles from Chattogram city.

The political climate of the upazila escalated last Friday following the tragic death of a teenager in a clash between BNP and Awami League factions in the Azampur area of Osmanpur union in Mirsarai upazila. The Awami League blamed BNP leader Aminul Islam for the youth's death, claiming him to be a Chhatra League member. Conversely, BNP contended that the deceased was an activist of Chhatra Dal.

Assistant Superintendent of Police Monirul Islam of Mirsarai Circle said the police are vigilant, anticipating potential clashes during the street meeting under such circumstances.

He said, "The police are prepared to address any situation. Several police teams are patrolling various points in the upazila, and, as of now, no clashes have transpired."
