The fascist government tried to establish autocracy and resorted to repression on the BNP leaders and activists.  BNP due to ceaseless struggle we could siege the victory in 2024’s July movement under the leadership of BNP chairman and Prime Minister Tarique Rahman, he said. The lawmaker paid tribute to the martyrs who had sacrificed their lives during the July movement.  During the discussion, the ruling party lawmakers praised the speech of the President who has recognized Begum Khaleda Zia as the founder of parliamentary democracy.
