National Citizen Party convener Nahid Islam at a rally on Wednesday said that conspiracies were hatched and the reform process was interrupted in the past one year going against the dream of building a new Bangladesh.
鈥榃e have seen that different conspiracies were hatched in past one year. Obstructions created in different ways. The reform process was not allowed to move forward,鈥� he said at the rally in Narsingdi鈥檚 Municipality Mor area on the 30th day of the party鈥檚 ongoing programme marking the first anniversary of the July uprising.
The July uprising ousted the authoritarian Awami League regime on August 5, 2024.
鈥楾he new constitution was not allowed to be established. President of the fascists鈥� Chuppu [Mohammed Shahabuddin] was not allowed to be removed. We have not been given the July declaration,鈥� Nahid said, adding that all the demands would be realised as the party was organising.
He also said that conspiracies were hatched to force two student advisers 鈥� local government, rural development and co-operatives affairs adviser Asif Mahmud Shojib Bhuyain and information and broadcasting affairs adviser Md Mahfuj Alam 鈥� to resign.
People of all walks of life took to the streets with the demands of a new Bangladesh and a discrimination-free Bangladesh during the July uprising, but the NCP has to hold marches and rallies across the country pressing the same demands after one year of the uprising, said Nahid.
鈥榃e have two student advisers in the interim government. Different conspiracies are being hatched and propagandas are being spread against them. These two advisers are not from the National Citizen Party rather they are representatives of the uprising,鈥� claimed Nahid.
鈥楾hey are in the interim government to strengthen the uprising to realise the dreams of the uprising. Conspiracies are being hatched to force two student advisers to resign,鈥� said Nahid, urging people to organise protests against such conspiracies and propagandas.
Nahid was a central leader of the Students Against Discrimination that spearheaded the July uprising.
Nahid, Asif and Mahfuj joined the interim government鈥檚 advisory council after the fall of the AL regime.
Nahid, however, resigned from the interim government鈥檚 advisory council to lead the NCP, which was formed by a group of student and youth leaders who led the July uprising.
Before Wednesday鈥檚 rally, the NCP leaders held a meeting with the families of those killed during the July uprising and held a march from the town鈥檚 Jail Khana crossing to the rally venue, reported 抖阴精品 correspondent in Narsingdi.
NCP leaders and activists, including the party鈥檚 chief organiser for North Sarjis Alam, chief coordinator Nasiruddin Patwary, senior joint convener Samanta Shermeen and senior joint member secretary Tasnim Jara, among others, participated in the programmes.
Later, in the evening, NCP leaders and activists also held a rally and a march at Baipail in Dhaka.
