BNP termed the banning of Jamaat-e-Islami as reprehensible, undemocratic and unconstitutional. The party said, new debates, new issues are being brought forward to cover up the ongoing issue of the resignation of the Awami government due to the brutal massacre of the student movement, which is bound to boomerang. Awami League will not be able to divert public opinion by playing the old card of creating issues in a planned way. The blood of hundreds of students, teenagers, youth and children will not be allowed to go in vain.
BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said these things on behalf of the party in response to the Jamaat ban in a statement sent to the media at 10:30 pm on Thursday (August 1).
He said, when the government is facing intense anger, hatred and pressure at home and abroad for genocide, brutality, fascist-style brutal repression of students’ peaceful movement; When international human rights organizations and the media are asking the government to be accountable; Regardless of party affiliation, students, parents, teachers, artists, journalists, lawyers, youth, women and other classes and professions are standing by the students by protesting and protesting, demanding the resignation of this fascist government from house to house in Bangladesh, then the Awami League opposition party was wiped out. And it has banned Jamaat-e-Islami as part of its crackdown on opposition parties without any credible investigation.
The Secretary General of BNP said that with these stubborn decisions, Awami League themselves planned to make the situation more complicated and confrontational, and the countrymen are afraid of putting the responsibility on the opposition party. In the past too, they have created conflict situations themselves and tried to impose it on their political opponents. The ongoing movement is also doing. The traitorous Awami League may do so in the future with its far-reaching plan to eliminate the opposition parties. For this reason, I call upon all the countrymen and political parties to be aware.
He said that even after independence, Awami League was in power and formed Bakshal, unable to deal politically with the movement of the opposition parties at that time. Awami League is such a political party, they believe in the principle of ‘either friend or militant’. After independence, the Jasad carried out massacres and brutal repression to eliminate them. This Jasad was once identified by Awami League as the one behind the assassination of late Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. Those bodies have alliances with different factions at different times. Awami League’s relationship with Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh is also well known. Once they were each other’s companions.
He said, today Jamaat is opposing the fascist government of Awami League. They have become militants in Awami language because they are not friends of Awami League today. Countrymen know well which political party is militant. Awami League is the biggest sponsor of the most militant in Bangladesh today.
