‘People will resist attempt to bring any party to power sans reform, trial’

Convener of National Citizens Party (NCP) Nahid Islam said if any attempt is made to bring any party to power without reform and trial, it will not be accepted and people will resist it.

He said this while talking to newsmen after paying his tribute to the Liberation War martyrs by placing wreaths at the National Memorial in Savar on the outskirts of Bangladesh capital Dhaka on Wednesday (March 26), marking the 55th Independence and National Day.

Nahid Islam said, “We want to build a democratic state system so that nobody has to shed blood again in the future. The independence of 1971 and 2024 is not contradictory. What we wanted in 1971, we achieved that in 2024. Those who are creating opposition between 71 and 24 have dishonest intentions.”

Saying that elections without reform and trial would not be accepted, he claimed, “Now there is an attempt being made to impose the old constitution. In addition to this, there is a conspiracy to rehabilitate fascism.”

He also said that any attempt to bring any party to power without reform and trial will not be accepted and people will resist it. The NCP will be ready to resist such attempts.
