Jamaat-e-Islami Central Secretary General Mia Golam Parwar said voters must reject the BNP, Awami League and Jatiya Party in this election, claiming their governance over the past 54 years has failed and people now want change.
He made the remarks at a Jamaat-e-Islami rally at Faridganj Bus Stand in Chandpur on Saturday morning.
Mia Golam Parwar said: “They have repeatedly become champions in corruption. Thousands of crores of taka have been smuggled abroad.”
Referring to incidents of killings with stones after 5 August and the beating deaths of people in Sherpur, he said: “The Awami League wasn’t even in the country then. So, who carried out extortion and killings? The people have seen that.”
He urged people to vote for Dr Shafiqur Rahman under the Daripalla symbol to fight corruption and build a Bangladesh of good governance and justice.
The rally was presided over by Chandpur-4 Jamaat-nominated candidate and Chandpur district Jamaat Ameer Maulana Billal Hossain Miazi, with speeches from Jagannath University VP Riazul Islam, Jahangirnagar University GS Majharul Islam, and other central and local Jamaat leaders and activists.
