AL cohorts being rehabilitated under Yunus-led govt: BNP leader Ripon
The current administration under Chief Adviser Mohammad Yunus is gradually facilitating the rehabilitation of members of the deposed Awami League, BNP Vice Chairman Dr Asaduzzaman Ripon alleged today (25 April).
"A process is underway within the Yunus administration to reintegrate Awami League leaders in various ways — sometimes in the name of advisers, sometimes as special assistants," he said while speaking at a rally held at Shimulia Ghat in Louhajang upazila of Munshiganj.
Ripon accused the current government of accommodating people who had actively opposed democratic values and helped sustain authoritarian rule.

"We are seeing those who once supported Sheikh Hasina, backed corruption, opposed the democratic process, encouraged autocracy, and clapped in support of repression, being placed within the administration of the Yunus government," he added.
The rally was organised to demand an end to illegal sand extraction across the country, proper river management and visible steps toward the construction of an international-standard container port at Shimulia Ghat.
