‘People won’t spare us if we follow AL’s path’

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir yesterday warned his party leaders and activists against indulging in misdeeds, saying the country's people will not spare BNP either if it follows the path of the deposed Awami League.

"Our leaders and activists must not behave like those of the Awami League. If they do, people will not love them," he said while speaking at a mass contact programme at the field of Molani High School in Thakurgaon Sadar upazila.

The BNP leader also asked the senior leaders of all district units to remain alert about their party colleagues and take action against wrongdoers.

"Take stern action or hand them over to the police if any BNP leader or activist is found involved in wrongdoing. Stop indulging in misdeeds. Otherwise, like Awami League, BNP too will be thrown out by people," he said.

Fakhrul also questioned the role of the former Awami League MP in his constituency, claiming no development was carried out in the area because locals supported BNP.

"There are many such areas where people were deprived because of their support for the BNP. Are such individuals fit to be public representatives?" he said.

Calling on people to unite, he said, "Let us build a country based on love and unity."
