DHAKA, May 4, 2025 (BSS) – BNP Chairperson's Adviser Zainul Abdin Farroque today said that BNP does not want to be fascist like Sheikh Hasina.

"We don't want to be Hasina to destroy the country's democracy," he told a sit-in program in front of the Jatiya Press Club here organized by Ziaur Rahman Social Welfare Council demanding elections by December 2025.

"We came to power with the support of the countrymen," he said, adding that if there is a fair election in this country again, BNP will come to power with the love of the people.

Urging the Interim Government's Chief Adviser Professor Dr Muhammad Yunus to hold elections as soon as possible, Farroque said 75 percent of the country's people want to exercise their democratic rights and therefore, the roadmap for the national election must be announced immediately considering the demands of the countrymen.

Matsyajibi Dal member Ismail Hossain Siraji and Karmajibi Dal general secretary Altab Sardar were present, among others, on the occasion.
