Led by Jubo Dal President Abdul Monayem Munna and General Secretary Mohammad Nurul Islam Nayan, thousands of party leaders and activists gathered at Zia's mausoleum to pay their respects.
Regarding the BNP high command's meetings with potential candidates across the country ahead of the election, Salahuddin said, "We have spoken with qualified candidates for each constituency to maintain unity within the party. These meetings aim to strengthen coordination and solidarity among nomination aspirants."
