An elected government is a must to implement the proposals of the state reform, Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) acting chairman Tarique Rahman said today (2 February).

"An elected government is required first to execute the proposals of state reform. So, it is necessary to hold the general election on priority basis. The parties which will get the mandate of the people will implement the reform proposals," he said while addressing virtually from London as the chief guest at a workshop of the Dhaka South City unit of BNP at Kadamtali ground in Shyampur. 

Tarique said the government must have to initiate the process of holding the election.
 
Mentioning that BNP is always in favour of the state reform, Tarique said, "Those who are talking about reforms, I want to inform them that BNP is the first party which raises its voice about the state reforms."
 
The BNP has been talking about reforms to various sectors of the country in its platform for the last two and a half years, he said. 
 
"Now, many people are talking about reforms and the people of the country want so. The sooner these reform proposals are implemented, the sooner the country and its people can be safeguarded from danger," he said.
