Unity against fascism essential to uphold spirit of July Uprising: BNP’s Nazrul
BNP Standing Committee Member Nazrul Islam Khan on Saturday stressed the need for anti-fascist unity to uphold the spirit of the July uprising.
“If we fail to save the nation from corruption and misrule, all our achievements will go in vain. Therefore, anti-fascist unity is essential. I believe such unity will keep the spirit of July alive,” Nazrul said at a mock parliamentary debate organised by Debate for Democracy on the Bangladesh Film Development Corporation (BFDC) premises in the capital.
Nazrul said political differences among BNP, Jamaat, NCP and other parties might exist but no one of them are undemocratic. “All are democratic parties,” he added.
“So, I don’t see any obstacle to holding elections. Preparations and public aspirations both support elections. We want elections as soon as possible,” he added.
Reaffirming BNP’s commitment to forming a national government if elected, he said, “We will form a national or consensus government with all allies of the movement.”
He warned that the fallen Awami League is still conspiring to destabilise the country.
In the debate, Eden Mohila College emerged victorious over Tejgaon College.
Trophies, crests and certificates were handed over to the participating teams.
Debate for Democracy Chairman Hasan Ahmed Chowdhury Kiron presided over the eteams.
