BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Advocate Ruhul Kabir Rizvi commented that the interim government is hesitant to mention the deadline, which people are looking at with suspicion.
He said this while meeting the delegation of 'We are BNP Parivar' with the martyr's family in Dhaka's Demra on Wednesday (October 23).
Addressing the interim government, Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said, 'You should reform. But why do you have so much doubt about the election date? Democracy is about making it clear to the people what will happen. People doubt these things. You commissioned a commission for reforms, did everything, in how many days will it report, in how many days will there be a free and fair election, in which people could not vote for the last 15 years – not such an election.'
He said, 'People will decide which party to vote for in the election, they will choose who will form the government. Clarity and guidelines are two of the conditions of democracy. You are hesitant to say date line, deadline. People are looking at it with suspicion.'
Rizvi said, 'Dr. Mohammad Yunus is an honorable man. He has brought international respect for Bangladesh. But he should first see in which people live, in which they find comfort. Regulate the market first so that low income people can eat properly. Has reduced the duty on many things, but it has no effect on the market.'
Also present at this time were- Adviser Engineer Ashraf Uddin Bakul of 'We are BNP Family', Convener Journalist Atiqur Rahman Rumon, Member Secretary Mithun, BNP Co-Organizing Secretary Professor Aminul Islam, Dhaka Metropolitan South BNP Member Secretary Tanveer Ahmed Rabin, Leader of Volunteers Arifur Rahman Tushar, Youth Dal leader Zakir Hossain and others.
