Dr Shafiqur Rahman, ameer of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami, has said that BNP is highlighting the importance of elections more persistently than before.
Speaking as the chief guest at a workers’ conference held on Friday morning at the main field in Nilphamari town, Dr Shafiqur said: “To conduct fair elections, state reforms are essential. Jamaat-e-Islami seeks to grant the interim government a reasonable period for this reform process. This doesn’t imply years, but without reforms, any election will lack fairness. I wouldn’t say BNP is rushing."
The event was chaired by Principal Maulana Abdus Sattar, the district Jamaat Ameer.
Dr Shafiqur further elaborated on his vision for a reformed judicial system, “We aspire to establish a judicial system where everyone has a right to justice, free from irregularities and corruption. Anyone involved in misconduct or bribery, regardless of position, will face consequences.”
Addressing Jamaat members, he also recalled the difficulties faced under the previous government, saying: “You all remember the former administration’s oppressive regime, where our peace was taken away, offices were sealed, and we couldn’t even sleep peacefully at home.”
