BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Friday night said the party’s Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman will return to Bangladesh on 25 December, ending nearly 18 years of exile.


“It is with great joy that I inform you that our Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman – the most beloved leader of millions, who has been in exile for almost 18 years and has led the democratic movement for more than a decade – will arrive in Dhaka on 25 December,” he said.

Speaking at a press conference at the BNP Chairperson’s Gulshan office, Fakhrul expressed hope that Tarique’s return would help remove obstacles on the path to democracy, reports UNB. 

“We believe that once our Acting Chairman returns home, the barriers placed before the democratic transition will begin to disappear,” he added.
