Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) acting Chairman Tarique Rahman today said the main aim of BNP is now to reestablish the trend of the multiparty democracy in the country again.
“The BNP’s main goal is now to restore the trend of multiparty democracy in the country to ensure the people’s rights, mitigate their sufferings and safeguard the country’s independence and sovereignty,” he said this in a message on the eve of BNP’s 46th founding anniversary.
Greeting the party leaders and activists at all levels, well-wishers and the countrymen marking, Tarique Rahman said, “Tomorrow (September 1) is a day of joy, enthusiasm, and inspiration for the people of Bangladesh. On this auspicious day in 1978, declarer of the country’s independence and former President Shaheed Ziaur Rahman Bir Uttam established the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP)”.
Noting that the democracy was killed through the BAKSAL system solely for the purpose of grabbing absolute power, he said, “Shaheed President Ziaur Rahman revived that dead democracy. The journey of multiparty democracy in Bangladesh began once again”.
